Housekeeping & Food Services Audits
Ensuring that PHSA and its agencies meet established benchmarks for cleanliness and food safety is an important priority for our organization.
To do this, we undertake the following activities:
- Participate in regular, province-wide independent audits of our housekeeping and food services operations. This allows us to compare ourselves to regulatory standards, best practices and to other similar facilities around the province.
- Conduct our own independent audits of housekeeping and food services operations to supplement the annual province-wide audits.
These audits use a common set of tools which allows us to compare results achieved year over year provides a good method of tracking whether housekeeping or food services are improving or need improvement. It provides an independent qualified third party’s assessment rather than relying on anecdotal stories from individuals be they patients, residents, or others.
Our housekeeping and food service audit reports are available for the public to view.
