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.

  • 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 These findings are administrative: the documentation was missing or out of date at the time of inspection.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 2 times across 2 separate inspections, most recently on March 2, 2023. For example: 3 - Do care plans include the required elements and are they developed with the participation of the person in care, parent or representative?

  • 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 5, 2019. For example: 1 - Are the physical facility, equipment and furnishings maintained, sanitary, accessible and appropriate for persons in care?

  • 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 across 3 separate inspections, most recently on September 11, 2024. For example: 2 - Is the environment maintained to prevent falls?

      • R10.3K - Review and, if necessary, modify each care plan if there is a substantial change in the circumstances of the person in care, or at least once a year, to ensure it continues to meet the needs, preferences, and is compatible with the abilities of the person in care; 81( 4 )(b)(i)(ii)
