Citations, newest first

Citation Apr 30, 2026 Inspection Building & playground safety
Indoor climbing- protective surface/Clean, good repair, proper size 55 Pa. Code §3270.102(f)/3270.104(a)
On 4/30/26, at time of initial inspection, a 4'4" climbing structure including a slide was observed in the front corner of room MS4. The area beneath the unsecured 4'4" platform and slide was not equipped with a protective surface covering extending throughout the fall zones of the structure. Additionally, based on the manufacturer specifications, the slide is not designed for commercial use and has been modified from its intended installation (bottom of slide not embedded), therefore compromising its safety.
Center’s plan of correction (implemented, May 6, 2026): “1. No Children will be permitted on the structure in MS4 (slide and platform) at any time - there will be signage hung. 2. There will be a large divider placed around the structure with signage hung on it, divider will be secured with zip ties so it cannot be moved. 3. All staff will be trained on…”

“Core safety” marks citations about supervision and staff ratios, discipline and caregiver conduct, background checks, child protection and safe sleep, the topics our score weights most. Pennsylvania’s records don’t grade violations by severity. “Follow-up” marks a violation re-cited at a follow-up visit, counted once. How scores work.
