Section 7 AAC 52.080 - Resident cleanliness and grooming(a) A juvenile facility shall issue to each resident items necessary to maintain cleanliness, including a towel, washcloth, toothbrush and comb. Drinking water and toilet facilities must be available to residents at all times. The facility shall provide haircuts on a regularly scheduled basis. Shower and bathing facilities must be available at least two times weekly, unless ordered otherwise by the facility physician.(b) The superintendent shall ensure that residents who are assigned to work in the kitchen, dining room, or near machinery wear their hair in compliance with public health and safety regulations.(c) Residents may adopt any hairstyle or length, if it is kept clean. However, when health-care personnel find that the length or style presents a health or sanitation problem, or the superintendent or superintendent's designee determines that the haircut or style identifies the juvenile as a gang member, the facility may require the resident to trim or cut the resident's hair or wear a hair net or other covering to alleviate the problem.Eff. 7/3/80, Register 74; am 1/14/2000, Register 153Authority:AS 47.05.010
