While not every daycare injury stems from someone else\u2019s negligence, many incidents do have a responsible party. Careless staff members or poor facility management can easily lead to injured <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fiolinjurylaw.com\/a-crisis-in-daycare-facilities-the-tragedy-of-childrens-innocence\/\">children<\/a> and lawsuits. Our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fiolinjurylaw.com\/tampa-personal-injury-lawyer\/\">Tampa injury lawyers<\/a> understand the common hazards for children at daycare centers. These include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Faulty playground equipment<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Access to staircases or hazardous objects\/materials<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Unsupervised access to swimming pools<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Lack of supervision<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Inadequate provider-child ratio<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Abusive staff members<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Unsanitary conditions<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Obstacles that cause trips and falls<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Food poisoning<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Unsafe buildings<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Dangerous furniture<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Toys with small parts<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Uncovered electrical outlets<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Delay in medical care<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Negligent staff members and daycare owners often cause daycare injuries. Standards of care are very stringent in childcare settings. Every daycare in Tampa Bay must abide by strict rules, regulations, and safety codes to make premises safe for small children. Failing to abide by accepted standards of care in a daycare center can easily lead to catastrophic and traumatic childhood injury.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In an unsafe daycare center, children can suffer <a href=\"\/practice-areas\/premises-liability\/slip-and-falls\/\">slip and fall injuries<\/a>, electrocution, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fiolinjurylaw.com\/practice-areas\/tampa-burn-injury-attorney\/\">burn injuries<\/a>, poisoning, abuse, neglect, and a myriad of other devastating injuries \u2013 all because of someone else\u2019s negligence. Luckily, Florida law gives parents the right to stand up against negligent daycare centers in the civil court system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Who_Is_Responsible_for_Daycare_Injuries\"><\/span>Who Is Responsible for Daycare Injuries?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If any negligence-related circumstances caused your child\u2019s injury, you may be able to collect compensation for medical bills, pain and suffering, and emotional distress. Don\u2019t let a waiver of liability trick you into thinking you\u2019ve signed away your rights to file a claim against a daycare center. These waivers are often not valid during daycare&nbsp;injury lawsuits, as they do not protect the daycare from liability in cases where negligence caused the injury.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When an individual staff member causes injury, such as with abusive behaviors or failure to supervise children, the victim\u2019s parents may be able to sue the individual person for negligence. If, however, the daycare facility is at fault, the parents can identify the center itself as the defendant. A daycare center may be responsible for child injuries if it has negligent hiring, training, or retention practices. Retaining a staff member with a known history of being intoxicated on the job for example, can lead to liability if the employee is intoxicated while a child runs into the road getting struck by a vehicle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Contact_a_Tampa_Daycare_Injury_Lawyer_Today\"><\/span>Contact a Tampa Daycare Injury Lawyer Today<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>For legal help assigning fault and proving liability in the Tampa Bay courts for your child\u2019s daycare injury, contact Fiol &amp; Morros Law Group.
