Introduction

Routine Inspection Report

An unscheduled routine inspection was conducted to assess compliance with the Community Care and Assisted Living Act (C.C.A.L.A.), the Residential Care Regulation (R.C.R.), and the relevant Director of Licensing Standards of Practice (D.L.S.P.). Evidence for this report was based on the licensing officer's observations, review of the facility records, and information provided by the facility staff at the time of inspection.

The following areas were reviewed:

- Licensing
- Physical Facility
- Staffing
- Policies and Procedures
- Care and Supervision
- Hygiene and Communicable Disease Control
- Medication
- Nutrition and Food Services
- Program
- Records and Reporting

As part of this routine inspection a facility risk assessment tool is completed. The risk assessment includes contraventions identified during the routine inspection, and a 3 year historical review of the facility's compliance and operation.

Contraventions

Observation (CORRECTED DURING INSPECTION): During physical walk through on day one of the inspection the hot water temperatures were taken in 3 areas. The hot water at the kitchen tap was documented at 56.1 degrees Celsius, this exceeds the required temperature. Further discussion with the manager determined the site has self identified the issue and the matter has now been resolved.
Corrective Action(s): Please ensure that water accessible to a person in care, from any source, is not heated to more the 49 degrees Celsius.
Date to be Corrected: Corrected during inspection.
