What these findings mean
Health authorities word their findings differently, so we group them by what they mean for your health. Higher-risk findings are the ones inspectors treat as critical, because they can directly make someone sick.
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 These findings are administrative: the documentation was missing or out of date at the time of inspection.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 4 times across 3 separate inspections, most recently on May 8, 2024. For example:
The most recent routine inspection record is displayed in a prominent place. [RCR Sec. 11(1) (b), (2); Bill of Rights 4(b)]
Food safety training and certificationLower risk
Many jurisdictions require a trained or certified person on site, such as a certified food handler. These findings mean the training record or the trained person was missing at the time. They do not by themselves mean anything was handled unsafely.
Recorded 2 times across 2 separate inspections, most recently on May 19, 2026. For example:
Employees on duty are sufficient in numbers, training, experience, and organized in an appropriate pattern to meet the needs of the persons in care and assist in activities of daily living. [RCR Sec 42(1);DOLSOP Preventing Opioid Overdose]
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 2 times across 2 separate inspections, most recently on May 8, 2024. For example:
Rooms and common areas are well ventilated, in a good state of repair, safe and clean condition [RCR Sec 22(1)]
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 4 times across 4 separate inspections, most recently on April 23, 2025. For example:
There is regular monitoring of the physical environment, and the care and services provided, to ensure that the requirements of the Act and this regulation are being met [RCR Sec 61]
