    2) Responsibilities: Reporter stated staff was observed hitting another staff in front of the children. Complaint finding: Substantiated (complaint #19794). Plan to correct: In the future, personnel will go to the main admin office to resolve any disagreements. When staff disagreements become heated, staff will be asked to exit the building through the main front entrance. Arrangements will be made for a conference with admin to ensure a safe and equitable resolution will be reached. When personnel resign or terminated, they will be asked to immediately leave through the main front door entrance and will not be let back in, to ensure safety and wellbeing of the children. We will have team building training within the next month. Source: OKDHS Child Care Locator program record.
