Playground Inspection & Maintenance: Preserve, Promote, Protect
Sustainable maintenance programs are essential to positive outdoor play experiences for children at their school and community playgrounds. This year, National Playground Safety Week is observed on April 22-25, and this webinar is designed to create awareness, maximize the value of playground investments, and create safer outdoor play destinations that promote healthy risk-taking and fun! Routine maintenance and visual inspections are key to preserving play and recreation environments, and properly identifying and addressing potentially hazardous conditions supports safer opportunities to engage in the lifelong benefits of play.
- Summarize safety considerations when conducting a visual inspection of playground equipment, surfacing, and the general area.
- Identify at least 5 potential hazards that can occur during playground inspections and effective corrective actions.
- Outline the key aspects of a successful, sustainable maintenance program and the significance of comprehensive documentation for accountability and follow-up.
- Identify two resources for developing inspection protocols based on industry standards and best practices.
