2 of 6 inspections on record found no infractions at all. In the past 12 months there were 2 inspections with 1 infraction recorded. The higher-risk findings here relate to: Food source, labelling and allergens and Hand hygiene and infection control.
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.
Food source, labelling and allergensHigher risk
Products used on clients must come from approved sources, stay in their original labelled containers and be thrown out when they are expired or contaminated. Unlabelled products make it impossible to know what a client is being exposed to.
Recorded 4 times across 3 separate inspections, most recently on April 1, 2025. For example:
All reusable equipment is cleaned and disinfected or sterilized as required or disposable covers used appropriately and discarded
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 March 4, 2025. For example:
Operator ensures service provider maintains good personal hygiene and cleans hands
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 July 30, 2026. For example:
Operator collects and provides required information before service provided
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 May 14, 2024. For example:
All sharps are disposed in a sharps container that is located in close proximity to where the personal service is provided and meets required standards
