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.

• Cleaning and sanitizingHigher risk

  Surfaces, dishes and tools that touch food or people must be cleaned and then sanitized or disinfected. Inspectors check sanitizer strength, dishwasher temperatures and how cleaning is done. Poor sanitizing lets germs survive from one use to the next.

  Recorded 3 times on March 4, 2026. For example: Garbage containers (inside facility) are cleaned and sanitized weekly and when soiled (clean whenever garbage has leaked).

• Handwashing and staff hygieneHigher risk

  Hand hygiene is the most important way to stop germs spreading between children, residents and staff. Inspectors check that sinks are stocked and easy to reach, that staff wash their hands when required (for example after diapering or before handling food), and that sick staff stay away from work.

  Recorded 2 times on March 4, 2026. For example: Staff wear gloves if hands contact bodily fluids.

• 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 March 4, 2026. For example: Infant, toddler, preschool – During diaper change, diaper cream from open container is taken with wooden sticks to avoid contamination.

• Chemicals and toxic substancesHigher risk

  Cleaning products, disinfectants and pesticides must be labelled and stored safely, away from food and from surfaces people touch. Inspectors flag chemicals that could contaminate food or harm people, as well as pest treatments applied without proper supervision.

  Recorded once on March 4, 2026. For example: Masks, gowns and eye protection are made available for staff use (in the event of ill staff or children), or for risk of chemical/body fluid exposures).

• 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 9 times across 5 separate inspections, most recently on July 3, 2026. For example: Floors are moped daily and when soiled.
