Hairdressing in the Hospital Setting – Procedure

[Anonymous]

Hi All,
Our LHD would like to re-implement a hairdressing service for in-patients.
The service would be mostly utilised by the higher risk immuno-compromised patients with long admissions e.g. cancer care, geriatric.
We are aware there are some state public health guidelines and standards for hairdressing in the commercial / community setting.
However we are wondering if anyone would be interested in sharing their procedures they have developed for hairdressing in the hospital setting.
Many Thanks
