While most of the cupboards are latched or do not contain hazardous objects / substances, there is one drawer with bags accessible which could be a suffocation risk. There is also clutter on one of the counters and the stove. The licensee explained that she is decluttering and reorganizing the entire home and is aware of the piles that have been moving around. She hopes to have this completed within a few weeks. And with regards to the cupboard drawer, she has ordered a replacement part to fix this.
