When talking with Fishers Public Health Director Monica Heltz a few weeks ago in a podcast, we discussed an upcoming program the Fishers Health Department will begin implementing – placards in local restaurants assigning a letter grade based on the most recent health inspection.

In a report filed with the Fishers City Council, the Health Department says those grading placards will begin appearing in local restaurants September 5th.  This program will start with traditional “brick and mortar” facilities and will include food trucks next year.

“Currently: 294 As, 26 Bs, and 18 Cs” according to the Health Department. “Three facilities failed inspection. All have corrected critical issues and re-opened.”

The Fishers Health Department also has an interactive dashboard containing the grades and the inspection report upon which that grade was assigned.  You can access the dashboard at this link.
