7054580640 inquest jury calls death of zachary morrisonrogers accidental parents disappointed by ruling i by rick vanderlinde staff writer two years after their only childs death sevenmonthold zachary morrisonrogers parents are sorely disappointed with the outcome of a fiveweek coroners inquest laura morrison 42 called the jurys recommendations wishy washy watered down and ambiguous i was really surprised that the recommendations were so softly worded she said yesterday i thought the jury had a good handle on the issues zachary died about 16 days after he was found hanging by the neck from the safety straps of an evenflo baby seat in a pri vate inhome daycare on april 1 1997 the inquest focused on private daycares in ontario the use of portable infant carriers and childrens aid society investigations morrison who testified at the inquest said the jurys rec ommendations arent specific enough leaving too much room for government agencies and evenflo to do nothing im not sure that a bunch of politicians and bureaucrats can be trusted to explore and act on this she said the coro ners system may be very admirable but im not sure the polit ical will is there morrison said she was also disappointed that the jury ruled zacharys death accidental she and zacharys father scott rogers had asked that the means of the unusual death be ruled undetermined we still dont have a lot of answers she said we really cant even be sure that it happened in the room his caregiver said he did the jury heard babysitter cynthia taylor found zachary hanging from the straps of the infant carrier where she had placed him for a nap the evenflo seat had been wedged into a wingback chair by taylor who closed the door when she left but the inquest never determined how the seatbelt straps became unbuckled since taylor remains adamant she must have buckled the baby in one theory raised by taylors lawyer was that she unknowingly engaged a secondary release grip on the bottom of the carseat the jury has recommended that evenflo conduct an inde pendently observed test to find out whether the secondary release can be tripped inadvertently j zjduouqyzt rod custom made railings gates and fences

recommendation requiring evenflo to use a springloaded release as required in europe many of the parents proposed recommendations werent adopted by the jury morrison said she especially hoped the jury would recom mend childrens aid societies be forced to provided record clearance letters to private daycare providers the letters would be shown to parents who demand a cas clearance from a potential babysitter the york region cas kept talk ing about confidentiality issues but i dont buy that she said if the police can do it why cant they police have just as many confidentiality issues morrison fears the weakly worded recommendations wont be enough to prevent a similar death in a private day care the coroners jury investigating zachary morrisonrogers death offered these recommendations tuesday the ministry of community and social services should start a seri ous review of the day nurseries act and how child care is provided in ontario the ministry should pursue a public information and awareness campaign telling parents what they have to be aware of when there looking for private daycare for their children the ministry should establish a reporting system to be used by all childrens aid societies that would provide statistical data to the min istry on a regular basis and in a standard format the ministry should review its intervention spectrum the criteria that caseworkers use to determine how a situation may or may not be handled by the childrens aid society therpinistry should discuss with ontarios childrens aid societies the possibility of establishing a roster of trained social workers who could be assigned temporarily to help societies if the number of cases jumps dramatically evenflo should make the warning that appears on jts infant carriers that babies should never be left unattended more visible evenflo should review the safety labeling on the carrier and in the evenflo manual with a view to improving safety information for the con sumer especially information about how the earner can be used evenflo should test the second release handle on the infant carrier to see if it can beiriadvertently released by someone canying the seat york regional police should modify their automated call system to make sure a call involving a child with no vital signs cannot be closed until an officer has visited the scene and started an investigation york police should adopt a policy of assigning experienced criminal investigators to cases involving children with vital signs absent and a supervisory officer should be assigned to monitor the progress of the investigation police when working with the childrens aid society should review its files for any information that could pertain in any way to the matter that information should be shared with childrens aid the cas should follow the same practice health canada should produce and distribute a consumer informa tion safety sheet that warns consumers about how to use infant carri ers or car seats properly including issuing appropriate warnings health canada should review the use of child restraints outside of motor vehicles and consider whether or not regulation of the products is needed whether by government intervention or through selfregula tion by the manufacturers york region should consider upgrading its method of handling 911 service to a system similar to the one operating in toronto a call cen tre operated by members of the police serviceto assess calls and dis patch appropriate response and shouldassess the current level of paramedic service
