The CDC advises that the use of friction is critical in physically removing soil, sweat, skin flora, dirt, organic material and debris from high touch surfaces. The outcomes of one’s cleaning efforts are tied to proper procedures being followed – any soil must first be removed before a true disinfection/sanitization can take place.

Our proprietary, multi-step process leads to better outcomes than just using wipes. The RCS proprietary, multi-step process is a comprehensive program designed to yield measurable before and after results. In using our state of the art, ATP swab testing system, simply put, we let the numbers speak for themselves!

Our goal is to keep your current inventory clean and in good working order for as long as possible! Complimentary repair services help stretch our customers’ budgets as we are able to keep garments in good working condition throughout the year, thus reducing the overall number of new garments that may need to be purchased by the department.

We’re handy, what can we say? While some garment manufacturing companies charge for repairs, our contracted customers receive complimentary repair work while we have their garments in-house for regular service. We can accommodate most everyday repair needs, including replacing worn Velcro, adding hanging straps to skirts, swapping out broken buckles, mending ripped straps, sewing up ripped binding/seams and more. The outside covering of lead wearables takes a beating and is susceptible to rips, tears, burns, fiberglass casting materials, archived stains and more!  We work to keep your garments functional and in the game! 

X-ray garments utilized by personnel performing fluoroscopy are routinely inspected for damage to comply with the requirements of hospital accrediting organizations. Radiographic examination of X-ray garments may reveal imperfections ranging from small holes to large tears. Though patient and staff safety depends on the integrity of the X-ray garments being in good standing, there are no standards establishing a criteria for acceptance or rejection of a garment. (Operational Radiation Safety, Vol. 80, May 2001)

Starting in 2017, RCS began providing this additional service offering with the intentions of removing this dreaded task from the “to do” list!  You’ve already gathered up your X-ray garments to have them cleaned and sanitized, why not save headaches down the road and just have them radiographically inspected while they are already inside of our facilities being serviced?

Part of being a full-service X-ray garment company means also helping customers with garment disposal and recycling needs. X-ray protective garments have historically contained heavy metals, including lead.  Lead is included in the Toxic Substances List under the Environmental Protection Act Registry and it should not be disposed of as conventional garbage, but rather as hazardous waste. When disposed of improperly, such materials pose contamination concerns for the environment.

We know you have enough headaches to deal with on a day-to-day basis, so how about we make this simple for you and say, “Just send it to us and we’ll take care of it for you!”. Our environment today faces plenty of challenges, so it is our pleasure to help you do the right thing in terms of garment disposal and recycling.

Being a full-service provider means much more than just cleaning garments. It is our pleasure to also help meet our customers’ needs in sourcing new X-ray wearables, protective eyeglasses, lead barriers, misc. equipment and more.

When our customers choose to purchase new X-ray wearables through RCS, we automatically inventory these garments, perform the annual X-ray scan to verify the garment’s integrity and then load this data into our cloud-based portal (RADCOMPLY™) for their records. When we ship these new wearables to the customer, they can simply receive them and no further action is needed.
