INTRODUCTION Persnal services t r n the bdy have becme increasingly ppular, s ffering/prmting these services at public events such as tradeshws, cmmunity fairs r ther public events is als rising in ppularity. The Guidelines fr Persnal Services Offered at Tradeshws apply t all persnal services defined in the Regulated Activities Regulatin ranging frm hair, skin and nail treatments t tatting services, piercing and bdy mdificatin. Operatrs shuld als fllw the Guidelines fr Persnal Service Establishments, at t prevent health hazards that may lead t unsafe physical cnditins r the transmissin f infectin t their clients r themselves. These tradeshw guidelines build n that infrmatin and clarify specific cncerns abut ffering PSE services utside the business establishment. Operatrs are respnsible fr ensuring they are in cmpliance with municipal bylaws and ther regulatry requirements, and fr btaining business licences and/r apprval t perate frm the apprpriate licensing authrities. 2.

Explain t the client and be satisfied that the client: i. Understands the nature, pssible cnsequences and health risks f the prcedure. ii. Is undertaking the prcedure f his/her wn free will. iii. Is nt under the influence f alchl r ther judgement-altering drugs. 2.

RESPONSIBILITIES OF VENUE AND EVENT COORDINATOR It is recmmended that the venue and/r event crdinatr cmplete the fllwing befre the start f the event in rder t prvide an infrastructure which will supprt prper infectin cntrl by peratrs while they are perating at the designated event: 1. Ntify the lcal health authrity and prvide: i. A list f services ffered. ii. A detailed flr plan. iii. The lcatin f hand-washing statins. iv. The lcatin f equipment-cleaning statins. v.

If there are less than 25 applicatins, submit them at least 14 days befre the event. If there are 25 r mre applicatins, submit them at least 30 days befre the event. 4. VENUE STRUCTURE AND LAYOUT 4.1 AVAILABILITY OF HAND-WASHING SINKS The best way t prevent the spread f infectin is t wash hands well. Depending n the type(s) f services ffered and equipment used, hand-washing sinks will ften be required. There may be exceptins t the requirement fr hand-washing sinks if the services ffered have a very lw infectin risk. This decisin will be made by the lcal health authrity n a case-by-case basis, upn review f the infectin cntrl measures. The fllwing are required unless exemptins have been apprved by the lcal health authrity: Prvide a hand-washing sink easily accessible by each peratr. Include the fllwing: Ht and cld running water. Liquid hand sap. Paper twels. Cvered waste cntainer with a plastic liner. Prper dispsal f wastewater. Shared prtable hand-washing sinks within reach are acceptable (e.g., ne sink adjacent t tw t fur bths). Hwever, there must be free access t the sink(s) withut pening a dr r tuching a curtain. Cnsult with the lcal health authrity fr apprval f the sink type and lcatin. Alchl-based sanitizers may nt be used as a substitute fr a hand-washing sink within reach if the prcedure invlves: Pssible puncturing f the skin. Pssible cntact with mucus membranes. The peratr having siled hands, even if glves are used. Any expsure t bld r bdy fluids during the prcedure. JUNE

6 4.2 EQUIPMENT CLEANING STATIONS T ensure peratrs have the ability t prperly clean, disinfect r sterilize any reusable instruments and equipment, the venue shuld prvide a designated space including the fllwing: One r mre suitably sized sinks with ht and cld running water. Cunter space n ne side f the sink fr dirty instruments, and n the ther side f the sink fr clean instruments. Sap and brushes, and a drying rack. Paper twels. Lw-level disinfectant fr cleaning the sink, brushes and surrunding area. If the rganizer is cnsidering nt prviding an equipment cleaning statin, the requirements fr an exemptin shuld be discussed with the lcal health authrity. 4.3 BOOTH LAYOUT AND SUPPLIES Operatrs shuld be ntified in advance f exhibit-area features and services prvided by the venue. The venue shuld d the fllwing fr each bth r exhibit-area: Prvide smth, nnabsrbent and cleanable material fr partitins if invasive prcedures are ffered (e.g., piercing r tatting). If nt ffered by the venue, infrm peratrs f their respnsibility t prvide suitable cvers fr the partitins arund the prcedure area. Prvide bth cmpnents and general-use equipment (e.g., tables, chairs, cunters, etc.) that are smth, nnabsrbent, and cleanable. Prvide sufficient bth flr dimensins t accmmdate the prpsed services withut causing cncerns due t vercrwding r inefficient equipment layut.

The level f disinfectin r sterilizatin required will depend n the types f services prvided. Specific guidance n cleaning, disinfectin and sterilizatin is given in the Guidelines fr Persnal Service Establishments. As there are sme limitatins psed by a tradeshw setup, the fllwing extra precautins shuld be taken: Bring all instruments and equipment t the event cleaned and disinfected r sterilized. Stre disinfected instruments in clean sealed bags (e.g., Ziplc) until pint f use. Stre sterilized instruments in their sterile package inside a cvered cntainer until pint f use.

7 Bring enugh sterilized critical instruments t last the entire event. If this is nt practical, bring a sterilizer. Tngs, clamps and frceps are examples f instruments that shuld be sterilized. Fr a cmplete list, see Appendix C in the Guidelines fr Persnal Service Establishments. Display the successful results f a bilgical spre test cmpleted within the past tw t fur weeks fr each sterilizer. Use nly prepackaged, sterile, single-use sharps (e.g., single-use needles and facial lancets) fr invasive prcedures. Dispse f all sharps in an apprved sharps cntainer immediately after use. Stre used instruments (ther than sharps) in a designated siled bin r bag. If reuse f instruments is necessary, clean and disinfect r sterilize instruments befre reuse as fllws: Bring yur wn sap and disinfectants (high-level, intermediate-level and lw-level as required) and/r sterilizer. Clean critical instruments at an apprved nsite equipment cleaning statin, and sterilize critical instruments using yur wn sterilizer as per manufacturer requirements. Clean and then high-level disinfect semicritical items at the equipment cleaning statin. Disinfectin may be dne at the bth if it can be dne safely and prperly. Clean and then intermediate-level disinfect nncritical items at the equipment cleaning statin. Disinfectin may be dne at the bth if it can be dne safely and prperly. Intermediate-level disinfectin is required fr nncritical items that accidentally penetrate skin, cntact mucus membranes r cme int cntact with bld r bdy fluids. Clean and then lw-level disinfect nncritical items at the equipment cleaning statin. Disinfectin may be dne at the bth if it can be dne safely and prperly. 5. BOOTH OPERATION Operatrs are required t ensure prper infectin cntrl and safety in their exhibit areas. The sectins belw utline hw t cme prepared, set up yur space and perate within yur bth. 5.1 GENERAL RULES N animals inside bth (with the exceptin f service dgs).

Cver everything tuched by the peratr s hands during a prcedure with a single-use plastic barrier, r clean and disinfect befre and after each use. Clean and disinfect all surfaces, cunter and/r general-use equipment in the prcedure area befre a client is seated. Wash hands befre putting n glves, at the cmpletin f client service, and at any ccasin necessary t prevent crss cntaminatin f equipment, instruments, supplies and clients. Wear single-use dispsable glves. Change glves and wash hands between clients and after any cntaminatin. Cver the tatt machine (mtr frame), clip crd and spray bttles with a dispsable plastic sheath. The plastic sheath shuld be dispsed f after each client. D nt treat a client unless the treatment area is clean and free frm cuts, wunds, rash, fungus r visible skin disease. Clean the treatment area with an apprved skin antiseptic befre perfrming an invasive prcedure. Ensure the skin antiseptic is allwed the required cntact time with the skin. Discard all dispensed pigments and hlding cntainers after cmpleting a tatting r micrpigmentatin prcedure. Prvide and explain written aftercare directins t the client befre any invasive prcedure. Operatrs may als direct clients t aftercare infrmatin n the HealthLinkBC website. Tatt Hme Treatment Bdy Piercing Hme Treatment JUNE
