Playground App: Incident Records

Modified on Tue, 19 Sep, 2023 at 6:51 PM

Teachers can use Playground App to create digital incident records for incidents that occur at your centre. These records can then be digitally signed by parents/guardians using your centre's device and reported on as necessary!


Check out our guides below on how to use the different feature available with Incident Reports with Playground App.


Creating an Incident Report


  1. Log into a room with your Teacher credentials
  2. Navigate to the Health tab at bottom of the screen
  3. Navigate to the Medical Events tab  using the medical icon at the top of the Health screen
  4. Tap the intended child
  5. Tap "New Incident Record"
  6. Fill in the required details on each screen: time and location, add images, type of injury/illness, location on body, circumstances, cause, symptoms, actions taken, further steps and parent notifications
  7. Review the record and add signatures where necessary
  8. Once signed, the parent will receive a notification on their Home App that an incident report has been created and that they are required to go to the centre in order to sign this. 



Please note:

  • Changes cannot be made if the educator who created the document has signed the document.
  • If you would like to review and make changes, including having your Authorised Nominee/Responsible Person view the record, please select "Save as Draft" at Step 7.
