Official record from Alberta →

Inspection summary

Shouldice Aquatic Centre - Dive Pool has been inspected 9 times by Alberta Health Services (Environmental Public Health) since December 8, 2023. The most recent inspection, on October 20, 2025, recorded 4 infractions.

None of the 9 inspections on record were free of infractions. No inspections are on record from the past 12 months. The higher-risk findings here relate to: Pool and spa water quality and Food temperature control.

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 22 times across 9 separate inspections, most recently on October 20, 2025. For example: Are the filtration, circulation and disinfection systems used to maintain water quality working properly (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 7 times across 7 separate inspections, most recently on October 20, 2025. For example: Is the pool maintained in a clean and sanitary condition, good repair and are temperatures being properly regulated?

  • 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 7 times across 7 separate inspections, most recently on October 20, 2025. For example: Are proper testing, monitoring, and other records being properly maintained?
