Inspection Reports: Which Food Providers Had Fewest Violations in May?

May's batch of inspection reports were light on restaurants and heavier on places where area children spend much of their time.

Fortunately for Mentor residents, most of these food service providers, which include schools and daycares, had zero violations during inspections conducted by the Lake County General Health District. April and May are generally the months in which most schools are inspected, so that the summer can be used to institue corrections if they are needed.

Lake Catholic High School presented a unique challenge last month because it required two inspections — one for the cafeteria and another for a coffee stand, funded by school boosters. The latter is separately licensed and brings in outside food from local restaurants, said Elizabeth Rinnder, a registered sanitarian in training with the district.

The district also conducted an inspection for the Mentor Senior Center, which made a special request in order to police itself following a complaint to the district from a customer who previously complained about undercooked chicken.

Scroll through the attached Google Fusion table to see which Mentor food service providers had just two, one or zero violations. In classifications like C3S or N2S, the 'C' indicates a commercial entity, while an 'N' means nonprofit. The number in the classifications is ranking that considers the size of a facility and the potential risk in food distribution.
