Restaurants were inspected for proper food preparation and storage, equipment and cleaning guidelines, among others. Neglected guidelines result in a deduction in points. Critical guidelines, such as food preparation, are worth more points because the violations could cause greater problems. We follow the codes to the letter and we keep the health risk minimal. We keep a tight grip on the establishments in Putnam County.
Education is the first goal.
Scores are based on a number scale with a perfect score being 100. A score of 75-80 is poor and indicates that numerous violations are present. With a poor score, the establishment must be re-inspected within a designated time period. A score of 74 or below is a failing score and indicates mandatory re-inspection within 24 hours after the first inspection. The establishment will be closed immediately if conditions posing an immediate health risk to the public are found.
