    Below is a summary of recent health inspections in Collier County, Florida, for the week of July 1-7, 2024. Please note that some more recent follow-up inspections may not be included here.

    Disclaimer: The Florida Department of Business & Professional Regulation describes an inspection report as a “snapshot” of the conditions present at the time of the inspection. On any given day, an establishment may have fewer or more violations than noted during their most recent inspection. An inspection conducted on any given day may not be representative of the overall, long-term conditions at the establishment.

    What does all this terminology mean when it comes to Florida restaurant inspections?

    Basic violations are those that are contrary to best practices.

    a warning is issued after an inspector documents violations that must be corrected by a certain date or within a certain number of days after receipt of the inspection report.

    A administrative complaint is a form of legal action taken by the division. Lack of compliance after a warning, a pattern of repeated violations, or the existence of serious circumstances that warrant immediate action may result in the division filing an administrative complaint against the facility. The division's website states, “Correcting the violations is important, but sanctions may still apply to violations corrected after the warning period has passed.”

    A emergency order — when a restaurant is closed by the inspector — is based on an imminent threat to the public. Here, the director of the Division of Hotels and Restaurants has determined that the establishment must cease doing business and that any division license has been revoked to protect the health, safety, or welfare of the public.

    After an emergency closure or permit withdrawal, a call-back inspection is carried out for 24 hours.
