Overview

Please complete all three of the following case studies. I am having you do all three of these because I promise that you will come across these issues. Better to have a plan in place, or at least think about options when you experience these.

Copy and Paste the questions in the submit assignment text box.

Case Study #1:

There is an outbreak of lice in your community. You are working as a barber. Your establishment's policy is to check each child's hair for evidence of lice before working on it. A client brings in his seven-year-old son for a haircut. As you inspect the child's hair, you see white specks close to the scalp. You suspect that they might be lice eggs (nits).

  1. How could you get lice in this situation?
  2. How could you protect yourself?
  3. What should you say to your client?

Case Study #2:

You are working in an establishment doing facials. A client requests a facial. You notice that she has a cold sore around the corner of her mouth. It looks cracked and you think that it might drain during the facial.

  1. What diseases could you get by touching a draining sore with your bare hand?
  2. How could you protect yourself?
  3. What should you say to your client?

Case Study #3:

When one of your favorite clients is making an appointment, he mentions that he ahs a bad cold but desperately needs his hair cut and style for an important job interview.

  1. How could you get a cold from this client?
  2. How could you protect yourself?
  3. What should you say to your client?
