The playground was completely fenced. The playground equipment appeared in safe condition, and play area is free from hazards. There is sufficient cushioning underneath climbing structures and/or play equipment to absorb falls. The facility has conducted an emergency drill within the past six months.

Sign in/out procedure was reviewed for compliance. This facility utilizes an electronic sign in/out system. Each person who signs the child in and out uses an individualized code/pin and the system records the time of the day. The child is signed in and out for the person responsible for the child. A random sample of ten children's files were reviewed for an admission agreement and found to be in substantial compliance.

Staff files for staff present during today’s inspection were reviewed for appropriate documentation of education credits. LPA observed licensee and staff pediatric cardiopulmonary resuscitation card issued is not either by the American Red Cross or the American Heart Association, or by a training program that has been approved by Emergency Medical Services Authority (EMSA).
