In a professional discipline matter, the registrant admitted misconduct arising from treatment of sensitive areas without the required written and verbal consent, failure to stop immediately when requested, and inadequate draping.
The tribunal applied the public-interest test governing joint submissions and held the proposed six-month suspension, reprimand, remedial coursework, and standards review were not contrary to the public interest.
The tribunal emphasized the seriousness of boundary-protecting consent and draping standards, while noting the absence of prior discipline and the support of analogous disciplinary authorities.
The joint submission was accepted and costs of $5,852 were ordered.
