Inspection summary
Quality Inn has been inspected 14 times by North Bay Parry Sound District Health Unit since February 5, 2024. The most recent inspection, on August 11, 2026, found no infractions.
6 of 14 inspections on record found no infractions at all. In the past 12 months there were 4 inspections with 4 infractions recorded. The higher-risk findings here relate to: Food temperature control, Pool and spa water quality 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 clients. In personal service settings like salons, spas and tattoo studios, higher-risk findings are the ones that could spread infection from one client to the next, through broken skin, blood or instruments that were not properly cleaned and sterilized.
Food temperature controlHigher risk
In a personal service setting this usually means equipment that has to reach or hold a set temperature, such as a sterilizer (autoclave) or a wax heater, or a fridge for products. A sterilizer that does not reach its temperature may not kill germs on reusable tools.
Recorded 3 times across 3 separate inspections, most recently on February 19, 2026. For example:
If equipped with an automatic sensing device, manual tests conducted at least 1/2 hour before the spa opens and parameters checked at least every 4 hours until the daily use period has ended (total alkalinity, pH value, free available chlorine, total chlorine or bromine residual, water clarity and water temperature)
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 3 times across 2 separate inspections, most recently on May 23, 2025. For example:
Free available chlorine (FAC) or total bromine within range of 5 - 10 ppm
Chemicals and toxic substancesHigher risk
Disinfectants must be the right type for the job, mixed to the correct strength, labelled and replaced on schedule. A disinfectant that is expired or diluted too much may not kill germs on tools, so these findings are treated seriously.
Recorded once on September 24, 2024. For example:
Continuous operation of all equipment and chemical feeders
Permits, records and postingLower risk
Operating permits, client records, sterilization logs and required signage. Client records matter because they let health officials contact people if an infection is linked to the business.
Recorded 2 times across 2 separate inspections, most recently on November 10, 2025. For example:
Daily records completed and signed
Building, plumbing and upkeepLower risk
The premises needs a working hand sink, a separate sink for cleaning instruments where required, cleanable surfaces, and good lighting and ventilation. Upkeep problems are usually lower risk on their own, but they make thorough cleaning harder.
Recorded 2 times across 2 separate inspections, most recently on August 21, 2025. For example:
Premises is maintained free from every serious condition that may be a health hazard
