What these findings mean

Health authorities word their findings differently, so we group them by what they mean for the people using the facility. Higher-risk findings are the ones that could directly cause illness or injury, such as water that is not properly treated.

• PestsHigher risk

  Signs of mice, rats, cockroaches or flies, or gaps and clutter that let them get in or hide. Pests carry bacteria and can contaminate food, supplies and surfaces, so evidence of activity is treated seriously and usually triggers a follow-up visit.

  Recorded once on June 25, 2026. For example: Adequate protection against the entrance of insects, birds, rodents, and other pests

• Food temperature controlHigher risk

  Inspectors check that anything that has to be kept at a set temperature, such as chilled or hot food, or equipment like sterilizers, stays in its safe range and that accurate thermometers are on hand. With food, temperature problems are one of the most common causes of food poisoning.

  Recorded once on June 25, 2026. For example: Food is held at 4°C (40°F) or less

• 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 June 25, 2026. For example: Food protected from potential contamination and adulteration

• Handwashing and staff hygieneHigher risk

  Inspectors check for clean, stocked washrooms and handwashing stations, and showers that bathers can use before swimming. Good hygiene keeps germs out of the water and off shared surfaces.

  Recorded once on June 3, 2020. For example: Separate/Designated hand washing basin with supplies of soap and paper towels in dispensers

• Equipment and utensilsLower risk

  Pumps, filters, chemical feeders and safety equipment such as lifebuoys, reaching poles and first-aid kits must be present and working. Missing safety equipment can matter a great deal in an emergency.

  Recorded 2 times on June 25, 2026. For example: Proper use and storage of clean utensils (including single service utensils)
