Inspection summary

Viking Health Centre - Food has been inspected 8 times by Alberta Health Services (Environmental Public Health) since February 29, 2024. The most recent inspection, on April 13, 2026, found no infractions.

5 of 8 inspections on record found no infractions at all. In the past 12 months there were 2 inspections with 1 infraction recorded. All recorded findings relate to upkeep, equipment or paperwork rather than direct food-handling risks.

The number of infractions per inspection has stayed roughly the same over time.

What these findings mean

Health authorities word their violations differently, so we group them by what they mean for food safety. Higher-risk findings are the ones inspectors treat as critical, because they can directly make someone sick.

  • Building, plumbing and upkeepLower risk

    Floors, walls and ceilings must be smooth and clean, with working lighting, ventilation, plumbing, hot and cold water, and washrooms. These are rarely an immediate food-safety risk on their own, but persistent problems can lead to pest or sanitation issues.

    Recorded 4 times across 2 separate inspections, most recently on September 11, 2025. For example: Is the facility properly constructed and maintained in a state of good repair to allow for the safe and sanitary handling of food?

  • 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 These findings are administrative: the documentation was missing or out of date at the time of inspection.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 once on April 10, 2026. For example: Does the facility have a valid permit and does the facility operate in compliance with the conditions of that permit, or is the facility awaiting approval prior to operation?

      • Several fluorescent tubes for the ceiling fixtures were burnt out (5 in total) at the time of inspection and another burnt out light tube was also observed in the dry storage room. Moreover, the light tube in the refrigerated display case at the front counter was also non-functioning.As per Dietary Staff, FM & E are aware of these burnt out light tubes and will be addressed in the near future.

      • EXHAUST CANOPY HOOD UNIT:Observed a slight build-up of dust on the hood filters and requires cleaning in the near future. As per Dietary Staff, this cleaning task would be the responsibility of the professional canopy hood cleaning company which I assume is Hydroblast; however, not sure because the sticker on the side of the hood unit has been removed and which states when the cleaning was completed and the next cleaning.Pictures of this area of concern was taken during the inspection and will be provided to the Dietary Manager for review and follow-up.
