What these findings mean

Health authorities word their findings differently, so we group them by what they mean for the people in care. Higher-risk findings are the ones that could directly make someone sick, and they matter more here because young children, older adults and people who are unwell are more vulnerable to infection.

  • 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 These findings are administrative: the documentation was missing or out of date at the time of inspection.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 8 times across 3 separate inspections, most recently on December 9, 2025. For example: Weekly menu posted in each dining area for Long Term Care. [RCR Sec 62(4)]

  • Food safety training and certificationLower risk

    Many jurisdictions require a trained or certified person on site, such as a certified food handler. These findings mean the training record or the trained person was missing at the time. They do not by themselves mean anything was handled unsafely.

    Recorded 3 times across 3 separate inspections, most recently on December 9, 2025. For example: Persons in care have at all times immediate access to an employee who is certified in first aid and CPR, knowledgeable about their medical condition and able to communicate with emergency personnel [RCR Sec 43(1);DOLSOP Preventing Opioid Overdose]

  • 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 once on December 9, 2025. For example: Expired medication is returned to the dispensing pharmacy as required [RCR Sec 72(b)]

  • 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 2 times on December 9, 2025. For example: A restraint may be used if the restraint is necessary to protect the person in care or others from imminent serious physical harm, or there is agreement as per the regulation [RCR Sec 74 (1)]
