Inspection summary
Angels Nails & Spa has been inspected 8 times by Alberta Health Services (Environmental Public Health) since November 14, 2023. The most recent inspection, on July 27, 2026, found no infractions.
3 of 8 inspections on record found no infractions at all. In the past 12 months there were 2 inspections with 3 infractions recorded. All recorded findings relate to upkeep, equipment or paperwork rather than direct infection-control risks to clients.
Recent inspections have recorded fewer infractions than earlier ones, so the record is improving.
What these findings mean
Health authorities word their findings differently, so we group them by what they mean for clients. In personal service settings like salons, spas and tattoo studios, higher-risk findings are the ones that could spread infection from one client to the next, through broken skin, blood or instruments that were not properly cleaned and sterilized.
Equipment and utensilsLower risk
Instruments, chairs, tables and footbaths must be made of materials that can be cleaned, kept in good repair and stored so they stay clean. Single-use items such as nail files, buffers, razors and needles must be thrown away after each client.
Recorded 14 times across 5 separate inspections, most recently on July 23, 2026. For example:
Is reusable equipment disinfected properly?
Permits, records and postingLower risk
Operating permits, client records, sterilization logs and required signage. Client records matter because they let health officials contact people if an infection is linked to the business.
Recorded 4 times across 4 separate inspections, most recently on January 20, 2025. For example:
Are facility-specific written procedures established to adequately describe safe and sanitary practices?
Building, plumbing and upkeepLower risk
The premises needs a working hand sink, a separate sink for cleaning instruments where required, cleanable surfaces, and good lighting and ventilation. Upkeep problems are usually lower risk on their own, but they make thorough cleaning harder.
Recorded 2 times across 2 separate inspections, most recently on November 20, 2023. For example:
Is the facility properly constructed and maintained to allow for the safe and sanitary provision of personal services (Non-Critical)?
Food safety training and certificationLower risk
Some jurisdictions require operators to complete infection-prevention training, or to hold specific qualifications for higher-risk services such as tattooing, piercing or electrolysis. These findings mean the training record was missing at the time. They do not by themselves mean a client was put at risk.
Recorded once on November 14, 2023. For example:
Has the operator notified the RHA of the existence of a personal service business, including contact and location information, as well as all personal services currently offered or new personal services that will be offered for facilities and/or special events?
Other findingsLower risk
Findings that do not fit the categories above, such as follow-ups that confirm an earlier violation was corrected, or requirements specific to this type of facility.
Recorded 4 times across 4 separate inspections, most recently on July 23, 2026. For example:
Are cosmetic products appropriate for their intended use and being handled properly?
