NEWS RELEASE
SIMCOE MUSKOKA DISTRICT HEALTH UNIT
*************************
Each year Simcoe Muskoka District Health Unit health inspectors complete more than 6,100 inspections at food premises, licensed child care centres, recreational water facilities, recreational camps and personal service settings to ensure that public health requirements are being met.

Upon completion of an inspection, the business or facility operator will receive a certificate of inspection sign to post on site.

The health unit has an updated certificate of inspection that includes a QR code that clients can scan to access the most recent inspection results. Businesses will receive a new sign following their next inspection. As inspections are completed, a new certificate of inspection will be posted on site by the facility operator. During this transition period, both signs will be visible in the community until all of this year’s inspections are completed at the end of December 2024.

For more information about health inspections, visit inspectionconnection.ca or call Health Connection at 705-721-7520 or 1-877-721-7520 weekdays between 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.
