Popis:	In 1992, Forces Command had 42 Child Development Centers on 22 installations. We evaluated program compliance in the areas of health, sanitation, and nutrition using inspection findings from April 1991 through June 1992. Each program was rated on 20 items, using inspection checklists developed for this evaluation. We also surveyed Haemophilus influenza type b (Hib) vaccination records among enrolled children. Most programs and facilities were fully or partially compliant in most areas. By quantifying the inspection findings, we were able to identify compliance items that needed further attention. The most frequent problem area across all programs was documentation of child immunization and health records. For children between 13 and 60 months of age, 77.7% had records indicating appropriate vaccination against Hib. Comparisons with the prior year's findings indicated a trend toward improvement.
