Inspection summary

Nails Pro has been inspected 3 times by Alberta Health Services (Environmental Public Health) since June 25, 2024. The most recent inspection, on July 19, 2024, found no infractions.

2 of 3 inspections on record found no infractions at all. No inspections are on record from the past 12 months. The higher-risk findings here relate to: Hand hygiene and infection control.

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.

  • Hand hygiene and infection controlHigher risk

    Infection control is the core of a personal service inspection. Inspectors check that operators clean their hands and change gloves between clients, that a stocked hand sink is available, and that anything that breaks the skin is handled so blood-borne infections such as hepatitis B, hepatitis C and HIV cannot pass from one client to the next.

    Recorded once on July 10, 2024. For example: Is hand hygiene performed by the personal services worker when required, in a proper manner and are provisions available to perform hand hygiene?

  • 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 3 times on July 10, 2024. For example: Is reusable equipment handled and stored properly (Non-Critical)?

  • 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 once on July 10, 2024. 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 once on July 10, 2024. For example: Is the facility properly constructed and maintained to allow for the safe and sanitary provision of personal services (Non-Critical)?

  • 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 once on July 10, 2024. For example: Are cosmetic products appropriate for their intended use and being handled properly?
