The classroom of the CCC is clean, orderly, and free of toxins. The classroom has age-appropriate furnishings available for children. LPA observed a carbon monoxide detector which was tested at 12:15 PM and found to be operational. The restrooms are in safe and sanitary operating condition. Sharps, cleaning supplies, and medications are stored in an elevated cabinet, out of the reach of children in care. Waste receptacles with tight fitting covers were observed throughout the center.

The CCC’s outdoor playground areas have varied footing surfaces. The outdoor area is enclosed by a combination of wooden and chain linked fencing. LPA observed age-appropriate toys/play equipment in the play area.
