Every year, more than 200,000 children are seen at emergency rooms for injuries associated with playground equipment. While the only legal requirements placed on playgrounds involve the Americans with Disabilities Act, there are recommended actions to establish an organization’s “Standard of Care,” established by the Consumer Product Safety Commission as well as various American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) standards.

This training, led by VRSA Certified Playground Safety Instructor (CPSI) Eddie Shelton, will provide information on these requirements, so you can ensure your entity’s playgrounds are properly audited, maintained, and inspected. Proper management can help in preventing accidental injury.
