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.

  • 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 November 28, 2024. For example: Work surfaces are of such form and material that they can be readily cleaned and disinfected

  • 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 These findings are administrative: the documentation was missing or out of date at the time of inspection.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 once on June 20, 2023. For example: Accurate records are kept for accidental exposures

  • 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 once on June 20, 2023. For example: Non-critical hairdressing items cleaned and disinfected appropriately

About this data

    1 infraction

    • Work surfaces are of such form and material that they can be readily cleaned and disinfected
      • Ensure all furniture is smooth, impermeable, easily cleanable and maintained in sanitary condition

  4. Required

    2 infractions

    • Accurate records are kept for accidental exposures
    • Non-critical hairdressing items cleaned and disinfected appropriately
      • All items must be cleaned and dried with a clean towel before they can be placed in a disinfectant solution. Placing a soiled item in a disinfectant solution contaminated the entire solution and therefore contaminates all the items placed in it.
      • To achieve appropriate disinfection, items require full immersion in the solution for the appropriate contact time instructed by the manufacturer.
