Tattoo Shop, Pool Inspection Reports Now Online

The Middlesex-London Health Unit is now posting inspection reports for tattoo shops, public pools and spas online.The reports will be posted here, along with the reports for restaurants and all places that serve food.

You will be able to choose whether you want to view the rating or the full report for the tattoo shop, restaurant, pool or spa. You can zero in on exact locations plotted on a map, searching by community or just typing the name of the place.

“We’ve had a lot of success sharing inspection results through the DineSafe website, which showed there was potential to expand our efforts to include reports for the other types of facilities we inspect. The data provides transparency and information the public  needs to make informed choices about these services,” notes Manager of the Health Unit’s Safe Water and Rabies Prevention and Control Team Fatih Sekercioglu.

While only licensed body art and piercing facilities are inspected and listed on the web site, the Health Unit says it gives people the power of information all while encouraging establishments to work within public health guidelines.
