Recent Incident at a Victorville Daycare Center<\/span><\/p>\r\n
One child tested positive for fentanyl after three kids reportedly ingested unknown pills at a Victorville day care.

The deputy that responded to the scene recognized the pills as potential counterfeit pills containing fentanyl; the pills had \u201cM30\u201d imprinted on them.<\/p>\r\n
Daycare staff reviews surveillance footage and identified three children that appeared to have ingested the pills in question. The three children and two daycare staff members were hospitalized.

Head Injury<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n <\/li>\r\n <\/ul>\r\nWhat is Fentanyl?<\/span>\r\nFentanyl is a synthetic opiate. It is similar to morphine, although it is 50 to 100 times more potent. Prescription fentanyl is used for pain control in situations like broken bones, and other injuries resulting from trauma-related incidents. Street fentanyl, on the other hand, is very dangerous. It is sold as a powder and is often mixed into other drugs, like MDMA, meth, cocaine, and heroin. Because the person using the drugs often is unaware that they contain fentanyl, overdose can occur. In fact, even just a dose of just two milligrams can prove to be fatal.<\/p>\r\nSigns of Exposure to Fentanyl in Children<\/span>\r\n
Some of the common signs of exposure to fentanyl in children include the following:<\/p>\r\n
- \r\n
- Small pupils<\/li>\r\n
- Difficulty breathing<\/li>\r\n
- Confusion<\/li>\r\n
- Drowsiness<\/li>\r\n
- Slurred speech<\/li>\r\n
- Loss of consciousness<\/li>\r\n
- Change in mental status<\/li>\r\n
- And more<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n
Of course, exposure to fentanyl can also be fatal, as a very small quality can lead to an overdose.<\/p>\r\nCan I File a Lawsuit?<\/span>\r\n
Yes, you could have the right to file a lawsuit if your child suffered harm due to exposure to fentanyl at a daycare center. The owners and operators of daycare centers have the duty to keep kids safe while they are at their premises. This means that they must identify and address any hazards on the premises before any incidents happen. When any drugs make there way into the premises, the owners\/operators of the daycare could be found liable based on the failure to identify the drugs before the kids reached them and ingested them. If the daycare staff brought the drugs into the daycare center, the daycare owner\/operator could be liable based on negligent hiring, negligent training, negligent supervising, or simply based on vicarious liability. What if a child brought the drugs from home? In those cases, parents could face some liability; however, the day care center owners could still have some liability.<\/p>\r\n
