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 These findings are administrative: the documentation was missing or out of date at the time of inspection.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 5 times across 3 separate inspections, most recently on May 27, 2026. For example: Employees comply with the policies and procedures of the MSAC [RCR Sec 68(4)]

  • 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 across 2 separate inspections, most recently on December 1, 2025. For example: Employee performance is reviewed regularly to ensure that they continue to meet the requirements of this regulation and demonstrates the competence required for their duties [RCR Sec 40(1),(3)]
