Kent County Health Department’s new online portal has been redesigned to provide the public with easy access to inspection reports for food establishments, body art shops and public swimming pools. The site also offers guidance on how to interpret those reports and answers frequently asked questions.
Director of Kent County’s Environmental Health Division Sara Simmonds says the portal is a valuable resource, ensuring transparency and ease of access to important health and safety information.
A key feature of the upgraded portal is an interactive map, allowing users to find inspection reports for specific establishments by name, address, or municipality. Routine and follow-up inspection results are also displayed, reflecting conditions observed at the time of the inspection.
Simmonds says the health department is committed to continually evolving the portal with plans to include access to well and septic permits, online licensing applications, and other features to streamline processes and improve public accessibility.
