The child care and school health and safety programs help protect public health by inspecting schools, child care centers, and other places that serve children. Our team works to ensure these places follow state regulations by providing education and enforcing the rules related to health, safety, and sanitation. We work to provide the following services across Larimer County:
- Child Care Inspections: Rules and Regulations Governing the Health and Sanitation of Child Care Facilities in the State of Colorado are used to inspect child care centers. These inspections include assessing how food is prepared and served, as well as reviewing general cleanliness, disease prevention, and safety measures at the facility.
- School Inspections (K-12 Schools): Rules and Regulations Governing Schools in the State of Colorado are used to inspect the condition of school grounds, water safety, sewage and trash disposal, pest control, plumbing, equipment and supply safety, food service, hazards in labs, art, and vocational areas, health services, and the operation of mechanical systems.
