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.

  • Food source, labelling and allergensHigher risk

    Food and other products must come from approved sources, stay in labelled containers and be thrown out when spoiled, expired or damaged. Labelling also matters for allergies: an unlabelled container can hide an allergen.

    Recorded 3 times across 2 separate inspections, most recently on March 4, 2026. For example: Absorbent materials laundered/cleaned and disinfected/discarded weekly (e.g. slip covers, dress-up clothes, plush toys, puzzles, cardboard)

  • Equipment and utensilsLower risk

    Equipment has to be made of cleanable materials, kept in good repair and stored properly. These findings are mostly about upkeep, like a cracked surface or worn part. They are generally lower risk but show how well the place is maintained.

    Recorded once on December 17, 2024. For example: Toys, teaching materials, surfaces, equipment, and/or furniture maintained clean and in good repair

  • 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 3 times on December 17, 2024. For example: Carpets/area rugs and fabric upholstered furniture maintained in a sanitary condition
