Haircare within the care setting

VBS is developing barbering programs for organizations whose residents or patients cannot readily access a traditional barbershop. Each setting has its own routines, responsibilities and service requirements.

Organizations we aim to serve

  • Nursing homes, senior residences and disability-service organizations.
  • Hospitals and specialized patient-care settings.
  • Psychiatric and youth residential programs.
  • Correctional institutions and other government facilities.

Clear arrangements, dependable coordination

A facility program would establish service scope, practitioner qualifications, access and sanitation procedures, supplies, completion records and billing arrangements. Specialized settings require their own approvals before service can begin.

Dignity and individual choice

Facility coordination should support each person’s preferences, privacy and permission to receive a haircut. Respectful communication belongs at the center of every visit.

Program availability

Institutional programs are not currently open for service. VBS is preparing to return to operations; facility services will be introduced only when the required arrangements are in place.
