Causes of Daycare Injuries & Accidents

Daycare accidents and injuries can be caused by a variety of factors, often related to negligence on behalf of the daycare. At our law firm, we can work on a daycare accident claim or lawsuit that involves any type of negligence or cause. We know how to conduct thorough investigations to uncover what happened, such as reviewing the daycare’s incident history, staff training procedures, and so on. If someone else’s mistakes resulted in the injury of your child in daycare, then we want to be the legal team that stands up for your child’s rights.

We can work on daycare accident claims that involve these common causes and more:

• Unsupervised playtime: Children without adequate adult supervision are more likely to get hurt during playtime activities in daycare centers.
• Poorly maintained facilities: Faulty playground equipment, slippery floors or other unsafe conditions can result in serious injury to a child at play.
• Negligent staff: Daycare workers should always be properly trained and attentive to prevent any kind of accident or injury.
• Lack of safety protocols: Proper safety protocols should be clearly established at a daycare, and all staff members should insist on always following those protocols.

Common Types of Daycare Injuries

Daycare injuries can range from minor scrapes and bruises to more serious bone fractures, head injuries, or even death. While some daycare accidents can be chalked up to childish mischief, unsafe conditions or negligent supervision are often to blame for the most serious types of injuries. When negligence on behalf of the daycare and its staff is involved, legal action might be necessary, especially when a child has been seriously injured.

Common types of playground injuries include:

• Cuts and abrasions: These often occur when children fall on rough surfaces or equipment. If untreated, a deep laceration is likely to cause permanent scarring, which is a form of catastrophic injury.
• Broken bones: Falls from playground equipment may result in fractures to arms, legs, wrists, or ankles. A broken bone that does not heal correctly can cause a lifetime of mobility issues, pain, and disability.
• Strains and sprains: Unnatural twisting or jerking motions can result in twisted joints. A severe strain can cause lasting joint damage that results in a reduced range of motion for years, or possibly permanently.
• Head trauma: If a child suffers head trauma in a daycare, such as what can happen from falling off a piece of playground equipment, then it can result in a permanent brain injury or TBI.
