Enter inspection reports database 2019 - current Enter inspection reports database 2019 - current

Inspections have been a part of the food safety regulatory program since the start of the Champaign-Urbana Public Health District (CUPHD) in 1937 and the start of the Champaign County Public Health Department (CCPHD) in 1998.
Inspections are used to determine compliance with the current food rules and regulations.
The term "routine inspection" means periodic, unannounced (no advance notification or appointment) inspections conducted as part of ongoing regulatory activities.
The term "follow-up inspections" is a visit to verify that a violation has been satisfactorily corrected within a specified number of days as determined in the Retail Food Enforcement Policy.
The term "reinspection" is used to describe an inspection when compliance was found below an enforcement level as determined by the CUPHD/CCPHD boards of health. Although a reinspection is also unannounced, the food establishment operator has been given notice that it will occur within a specific number of days.
Inspection Highlights
- Meet and Greet: Inspectors introduce themselves and explain the purpose of the visit
- Lead by Example: Inspectors wash their hands, practice good personal hygiene
- Quick Overview: They familiarize themselves with the layout of the facility, processes and menu, spot immediate health hazards, e.g. sewage back-up
- In-depth Review: Observe, ask questions, measure to assess control of risk factors and implementation of public health interventions
- Check Good Retail Practices: Maintenance and cleanliness
- Take any Corrective Action: Corrected on-site, embargo food if necessary
- Discuss: Provide a written report, conduct an exit interview to discuss the report and answer any questions
- Notify Person in Charge of the Findings: Via written report and exit discussion
