Based on observation, the center failed to ensure areas and equipment of the center, inside and outside, shall be maintained in a clean, safe and operable condition.

Evidence:
1.On the playground, the bottom step to the children?s boat was cracked and broken, creating a gap. This is an entrapment hazard to children.
2. The picnic table under the outdoor play structure on the School age playground, had a board that was broken and splintered. This creates a snagging hazard to children.
3. Children (ages 3-5 years) were observed during the nap period sleeping on mats. The plastic bags that are used to store the mats (after nap) were placed under the mats where the children?s heads were laying. During nap, several children had transitioned from the mat and their heads were observed laying on or near the plastic bags under the mats. To avoid danger of suffocation, plastic bags must be kept away from babies and children.
Plan of Correction: 1. The children's boat will be thrown away.
2. Maintenance will be replacing the board.
3. The PD has spoke with the teachers and the bags are not stored with children. 2/7
