Inspection summary

Lewis Estates Retirement Residence - Swimming Pool has been inspected 25 times by Alberta Health Services (Environmental Public Health) since October 23, 2023. The most recent inspection, on September 11, 2026, recorded 1 infraction.

13 of 25 inspections on record found no infractions at all. In the past 12 months there were 8 inspections with 4 infractions recorded. The higher-risk findings here relate to: Pool and spa water quality, Food temperature control and Chemicals and toxic substances.

The number of infractions per inspection has stayed roughly the same over time.

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.

  • Pool and spa water qualityHigher risk

    For pools, spas and splash pads, inspectors test disinfectant levels, pH and water clarity, and check safety equipment. Water that is not properly treated can spread skin, ear and stomach infections.

    Recorded 10 times across 9 separate inspections, most recently on September 11, 2026. For example: Is the bacteriological quality of the water in this pool satisfactory (Non-Critical)?

  • 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 3 times across 3 separate inspections, most recently on June 18, 2025. For example: Is the pool maintained in a clean and sanitary condition, good repair and are temperatures being properly regulated?

  • Chemicals and toxic substancesHigher risk

    Pool chemicals such as chlorine and acid must be labelled, stored apart from each other and handled safely. Mixing them by mistake can release toxic gas, so storage and handling problems are treated seriously.

    Recorded once on October 23, 2023. For example: Is the chemical quality of the water in this pool satisfactory (Critical)?

  • Permits, records and postingLower risk

    Operating permits, water-test logs, posted bather rules and emergency procedures. Daily test logs are how operators show the water was checked and treated between inspections.

    Recorded 4 times across 3 separate inspections, most recently on December 4, 2023. For example: Does the facility have a valid permit and does the facility operate in compliance with the conditions of that permit?

      • Written records in pool chemical/mechanical room indicate that the manual water chemistry testing for pH, alkalinity, and chlorine on several dates has been recorded outside of the acceptable ranges. Ensure pool parameters (including but not limited to chlorine, pH) are tested and recorded daily. Written records are incomplete. Written records are incomplete. Records do not indicate actions/measures (ie. Closure) or re-sampling if chemicals added or parameters are outside of normal safe operating ranges. Ensure staff are keeping adequate records of pool testing and actions taken (ie. Type and quantity of chemicals added, chemical parameters upon retesting, pool closure, ect). October 6, 2023 - manual testing of the basin by staff the morning of October 6, 2023 indicated levels of FC 2.72 ppm vs PHI tests at FC 6.89 ppm and 7.72 ppm October 23, 2023 - pH 7.72 and 7.73 at the pool. Observed staff member complete manual pool testing. DPD3 was added to pool water and not to DPD1. Ensure staff are following the directions and have been properly trained on how to complete pool testing. Facility pool test kit readings appear to be below both PHI and Elite pool test kit for pH. (EPH 7.6, site kit 7.3). Ensure pool test kit is able to accurately reflect pool chemical parameters.
