The last 3 inspections in a row found no infractions. The number of infractions per inspection has stayed roughly the same over time.

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.

  • Protecting food from contaminationHigher risk

    Clean and used instruments, towels and supplies must be kept apart, and products such as wax, creams and inks must be dispensed so they cannot be contaminated between clients (no double-dipping). Mixing clean and dirty items is a direct route for infection.

    Recorded once on June 19, 2019. For example: Surfaces, fixtures and furniture are in good repair, easily cleanable and of smooth and impermeable material maintained in a sanitary manner. s. 8(1)(3)

  • 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 6 times across 5 separate inspections, most recently on July 14, 2023. For example: Proper body piercing procedures are followed.

  • 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 6 times across 6 separate inspections, most recently on July 14, 2023. For example: Proper cleaning and disinfection of equipment, instruments, and surfaces. s. 10(4)

  • 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 June 19, 2019. For example: Before providing a personal service, obtain client contact information. s. 5

  • 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 14, 2023. For example: Proper use and testing of sterilizer. s. 9
