Inspection summary

Camp Vincent - Pool has been inspected 25 times by Chatham-Kent Public Health since July 3, 2013. The most recent inspection, on August 21, 2026, found no infractions.

7 of 25 inspections on record found no infractions at all. In the past 12 months there was 1 inspection with 0 infractions recorded. The higher-risk findings here relate to: Pool and spa water quality, Chemicals and toxic substances and Protecting food from contamination.

The last 2 inspections in a row found no infractions. Recent inspections have recorded more infractions than earlier ones, so it is worth reading the latest reports closely.

What these findings mean

Health authorities word their findings differently, so we group them by what they mean for the people using the facility. Higher-risk findings are the ones that could directly cause illness or injury, such as water that is not properly treated.

  • Pool and spa water qualityHigher risk

    For pools, spas and splash pads, inspectors test disinfectant levels, pH and water clarity, and check safety equipment. Water that is not properly treated can spread skin, ear and stomach infections.

    Recorded 21 times across 11 separate inspections, most recently on July 26, 2024. For example: All components of the pool are maintained in proper working order s.6(6)(a)

  • Chemicals and toxic substancesHigher risk

    Pool chemicals such as chlorine and acid must be labelled, stored apart from each other and handled safely. Mixing them by mistake can release toxic gas, so storage and handling problems are treated seriously.

    Recorded 2 times on July 10, 2017. For example: Continuous operation of all equipment and chemical feeders s.6(2)(c)

  • Protecting food from contaminationHigher risk

    This covers how food and supplies are stored and handled: kept covered, off the floor, and away from anything that could contaminate them. Where food is served, raw meat must be kept away from ready-to-eat food, a direct route for salmonella and E. coli.

    Recorded once on July 10, 2017. For example: Water is maintained free from visible matter and contamination s.7(1) / 7(3)

  • Permits, records and postingLower risk

    Operating permits, water-test logs, posted bather rules and emergency procedures. Daily test logs are how operators show the water was checked and treated between inspections.

    Recorded 9 times across 6 separate inspections, most recently on July 26, 2024. For example: Records retained for one year s.9

  • Building, plumbing and upkeepLower risk

    Decks, ladders, fencing, drains, washrooms and signage must be in good repair. Damaged drain covers or broken fencing can be real safety hazards, while most other upkeep issues are lower risk.

    Recorded 5 times across 4 separate inspections, most recently on July 10, 2017. For example: Premises is maintained free from every condition that may be a health hazard
