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.
Protecting food from contaminationHigher risk
This covers how food and supplies are stored and handled: kept covered, off the floor, and away from anything that could contaminate them. Where food is served, raw meat must be kept away from ready-to-eat food, a direct route for salmonella and E. coli.
Recorded 2 times across 2 separate inspections, most recently on June 5, 2024. For example:
5 Are the premises and equipment properly maintained and operated in a sanitary manner (i.e. ongoing maintenance)?
Cleaning and sanitizingHigher risk
Decks, change rooms, showers and shared equipment must be cleaned and disinfected regularly so infections such as athlete's foot and plantar warts are not passed between users.
Recorded once on July 4, 2016. For example:
8 - Are equipment, food contact surfaces and utensils washed, sanitized and stored in a manner that removes/prevents contamination?
Handwashing and staff hygieneHigher risk
Inspectors check for clean, stocked washrooms and handwashing stations, and showers that bathers can use before swimming. Good hygiene keeps germs out of the water and off shared surfaces.
Recorded once on July 4, 2016. For example:
15 - Are there handwashing stations available and properly supplied?
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 2 times on July 4, 2016. For example:
17 - Are written food handling procedures (Food Safety Plan) current and available on site?
Building, plumbing and upkeepLower risk
Decks, ladders, fencing, drains, washrooms and signage must be in good repair. Damaged drain covers or broken fencing can be real safety hazards, while most other upkeep issues are lower risk.
Recorded once on July 4, 2016. For example:
6 - Does the food premises have the key services (e.g. water, sewer, power) required to operate safely?
