Quizplus · Accepted Answer

When treating a client with genital herpes or genital warts it is important to treat linens as contaminated to prevent the spread of infection to others. This includes wearing gloves, using disposable materials whenever possible, and following proper sanitation procedures. It is also important to avoid cross-contamination by properly disposing of contaminated materials and washing hands thoroughly before and after each session. Lighter-than-normal pressure, avoiding hot packs on the lower back, and avoiding pressure and speed that rocks the client are not necessarily relevant to treating clients with genital herpes or genital warts.
