What these findings mean

Health authorities word their findings differently, so we group them by what they mean for your health. Higher-risk findings are the ones inspectors treat as critical, because they can directly make someone sick.

  • Food temperature controlHigher risk

    Inspectors check that anything that has to be kept at a set temperature, such as chilled or hot food, or equipment like sterilizers, stays in its safe range and that accurate thermometers are on hand. With food, temperature problems are one of the most common causes of food poisoning.

    Recorded 2 times across 2 separate inspections, most recently on November 5, 2025. For example: Water accessible to a person in care, from any source, is not to exceed 49° Celsius [RCR Sec 17]

  • Permits, records and postingLower risk

    Operating permits, required signage, written procedures and logs. These findings are administrative: the documentation was missing or out of date at the time of inspection.

    Recorded 12 times across 6 separate inspections, most recently on May 5, 2026. For example: Care plans take into account the persons in care's unique abilities, physical, social and emotional needs, and cultural and spiritual preferences [RCR Sec 81(2)(b)]

  • Equipment and utensilsLower risk

    Equipment has to be made of cleanable materials, kept in good repair and stored properly. These findings are mostly about upkeep, like a cracked surface or worn part. They are generally lower risk but show how well the place is maintained.

    Recorded 3 times across 2 separate inspections, most recently on November 5, 2025. For example: Sufficient materials, supplies and equipment for the program of activities are readily accessible and safe, and provided without charge [RCR Sec 55(3)]

  • Building, plumbing and upkeepLower risk

    Floors, walls and ceilings must be clean and in good repair, with working lighting, ventilation, plumbing, hot and cold water, and washrooms. These are rarely an immediate health risk on their own, but persistent problems can lead to pest or sanitation issues.

    Recorded once on February 23, 2023. For example: Bathrooms have a door, with a lock that can be opened from the outside in case of an emergency [RCR Sec 30(a)]

  • Other findingsLower risk

    Findings that do not fit the categories above, such as follow-ups that confirm an earlier violation was corrected, or requirements specific to this type of facility.

    Recorded 6 times across 4 separate inspections, most recently on November 5, 2025. For example: Prior to and or on admission persons in care are informed on how to express concerns or make complaints to the medical health officer or the Patient Care Quality Office [RCR Sec 48(1)(c)]
