On 04/15/2026, Licensing Program Analysts (LPA) Sydney Sims conducted an announced case management visit. The purpose of the visit was to ensure that the facility’s playground meets community care licensing regulations. LPA Sims inspected the playground and observed turf has been installed on the playground over the dirt area that was previously not accessible to infants. The Licensee stated that staff will log temperature safety checks when the outside temperature reaches 90 degrees Fahrenheit before allowing the infants to play outside to ensure the turf does not reach a temperature hot enough to cause harm to an infant. Licensee stated that the facility installed a hose that reaches the play ground in order to spray the turf with water to cool it down on hot days. Licensee stated that the turf has a lot of shade through out the day. The Licensee plans to have the staff leaf blow the turf daily to keep debris off the turf to maintain the turf in good condition and keep the turf free of debris. During the visit conducted today, LPA observed the facility is within compliance and no violations were cited.
