This is a single story 4 bedroom, 2 bathroom home with kitchen/dining, den (also labeled "day care room"), office, living room, and garage. There is no pool/spa or body of water on the premises. Family members residing in the home include 2 adults (applicant, applicant's daughter) and two children. Incidental Medical Services (IMS) policy was discussed.
Main care is provided in den (adjacent to Bedroom 3 leading to back yard). Children use the Bathroom 1 in hallway across from the kitchen. Off limits areas include Bedroom #1 through #3, Bathroom #2, kitchen, and garage. The home was inspected inside and out for safety, comfort, cleanliness, telephone service, heating and ventilation, inaccessibility to poisons, detergents/cleaning compounds (locked under kitchen sink), medicines (locked in hallway closet) and hazardous items (sharp knives in upper kitchen cabinet) that can pose a danger to children. Applicant reminded to conduct fire/earthquake drills every 6 months and document. A Roster was provided to Applicant to complete and maintain. The office has two steps leading down to the den. The steps have gate.
The backyard is completely fenced. There is a large tree that provides shade. Two dogs are kept in dog run on side yard, made inaccessible to children by gate. Age appropriate outdoor toys are available for child use and seating for outdoor meals. LPA observed a gate with unlocked side gate leading to front yard accessible in backyard.
