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 These findings are administrative: the documentation was missing or out of date at the time of inspection.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 5 times across 2 separate inspections, most recently on December 4, 2025. For example: For each person in care, there is a record showing the date of admission, and the consent to be admitted or to continue to be accommodated. [RCR Sec 77.1(1)(a)(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 October 31, 2024. 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]

  • 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 October 31, 2024. For example: Employees have been trained in the implementation of the plans and in the use of emergency equipment [RCR Sec 51(3)]

  • 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 2 times across 2 separate inspections, most recently on December 4, 2025. For example: Adequate supervision is provided to persons in care participating in food preparation or service to ensure safety [RCR Sec 65(2)]
