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.

  • Handwashing and staff hygieneHigher risk

    Hands are one of the main ways germs spread, from person to person and onto food and surfaces. Inspectors look for stocked, accessible handwashing sinks, staff washing their hands when required, and sick staff being kept away from work where it matters. Gaps here can spread illness quickly.

    Recorded once on September 21, 2023. For example: There is a program to instruct, if necessary, and assist persons in care in maintaining health and hygiene [RCR Sec 54(1)]

  • 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 These findings are administrative: the documentation was missing or out of date at the time of inspection.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 10 times across 5 separate inspections, most recently on November 5, 2025. For example: For each person in care, there is a record showing the date of admission, and the consent to be admitted or to continue to be accommodated. [RCR Sec 77.1(1)(a)(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 3 separate inspections, most recently on November 5, 2025. For example: Employees have been trained in the implementation of the plans and in the use of emergency equipment [RCR Sec 51(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 2 times across 2 separate inspections, most recently on November 5, 2025. For example: Bathrooms have slip resistant material on the bottom of bathtub(s) and shower(s), [RCR Sec 30(b)]

  • 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 once on September 21, 2023. For example: Records and personal information are kept confidential [RCR Sec 93; Bill of Rights 2(d)]
