Inspection summary

L & K Nails & Spa has been inspected 3 times by Alberta Health Services (Environmental Public Health) since January 5, 2024. The most recent inspection, on December 3, 2025, recorded 7 infractions.

None of the 3 inspections on record were free of infractions. In the past 12 months there were 2 inspections with 15 infractions recorded. All recorded findings relate to upkeep, equipment or paperwork rather than direct infection-control risks to clients.

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.

  • 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 7 times across 3 separate inspections, most recently on December 3, 2025. For example: Are facility-specific written procedures established to adequately describe safe and sanitary practices?

  • 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 2 separate inspections, most recently on December 3, 2025. For example: Is single-use or uncleanable equipment being used as intended (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 December 2, 2025. 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 2 times across 2 separate inspections, most recently on December 3, 2025. For example: Are cosmetic products appropriate for their intended use and being handled properly?
