Twice a year, each cruise ship that sails to or from a U.S. cruise port goes through an unannounced public health inspection.  This surprise inspection is done by the VSP (Vessel Sanitation Program by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) to determine how well the cruise ships are operating and to the check the sanitation standards on board each ship.

During the inspections, all major areas of the ship are inspected including medical facilities, portable water systems, swimming pools and hot tubs, galleys and dining rooms, child activity centers, hotel accommodations, ventilation systems, and common areas of the ship.
