It is very obvious that far too many nail courses are not teaching about nail conditions! They may provide a \u2018manual\u2019 that lists some, but this knowledge is not checked nor tested. It is a case of \u2018read this\u2019. NOT good enough!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Every day there are dozens of posts on social media of pictures of a condition with the question \u201cwhat is this?\u201d. What follows is a whole list of comments and advice. Some are correct but most are wrong!! How do you know what is right? Many comments include the question \u201care you qualified?\u201d. This always upsets, and the accurate answer is \u201cyes but not very well!\u201d But who admits to that? You don\u2019t know what you don\u2019t know.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
No tiene sentido publicar una foto de un problema preguntando de qu\u00e9 se trata. Casi siempre se necesita otra informaci\u00f3n para dar una respuesta precisa. Cada enfermedad requiere una informaci\u00f3n diferente. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u00bfConfuso? Muchos tambi\u00e9n.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A very general example: there are some marks visible under the nail plate. Are the marks on all nails or just 1? What nail services has the client received in recent months? What is the time between services or maintenance? Is the client aware of any accidental damage? Is there any sensation in the nail bed e.g., soreness, tightness? Is there any change in the skin condition around the nail? How good is the client\u2019s homecare routine?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Despu\u00e9s de obtener toda la informaci\u00f3n que necesita para tener una buena idea de lo que est\u00e1 fallando. Entonces es el momento de decidir qu\u00e9 hacer al respecto. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
La l\u00ednea que separa el reconocimiento del diagn\u00f3stico es muy fina y a menudo se cruza. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The basic level of education should start with the National Occupational Standards. These are considered to be \u2018job ready\u2019. They are not advanced. Unfortunately, so many courses don\u2019t even come close. Regulated qualifications are totally based on the NOS but also rely on the quality assurance from the Awarding Body (which doesn\u2019t always hit the mark!) Unregulated or accredited qualifications are supposed to be based on the NOS. But when you consider a regulated manicure qualification should take around 55 hrs. to complete (including \u2018nail conditions\u2019), and some unregulated courses are done in half a day, how can it even work? It doesn\u2019t!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
La educaci\u00f3n lo es todo.
But remember the comparison between \u2018practice makes perfect\u2019 vs \u2018perfect practice makes perfect\u2019?
\u00a1Practicar lo incorrecto no hace lo perfecto!
Del mismo modo, no toda educaci\u00f3n lo es todo, \u00a1pero s\u00f3lo una educaci\u00f3n buena y fiable lo es!<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
