Page 2 During the walk through of the play yard LPA observed one slide which had 2 missing screws on top of the slide, there was one screw holding the slide on top and there is another slide with a wooden support on the bottom of the slide which needs to be repaired. Both slides are still useable and can hold weight. There is an open access hole on the side of the building by the play area which is approximately 6 inches by 12 inches missing a screen. Based on LPAs observations, the licensee failed to keep the childcare center in good repair at all times to ensure the safety and well-being of children, employees and visitors. This requirement was not met as evidenced by slides with missing screws or unstable support and an open access hole on the side of the building.
