OUR STORY
Acquiring ringworm from wearing hospital-owned garments while on the job was not a pleasant experience! After years of wearing sweaty, soiled and “less than sanitary” protective X-ray garments in facilities, we began to study and examine the associated infection control risks. As a result, we developed a proprietary, multi-step, cleaning & sanitization system based upon cleaning guidelines provided by the CDC, TJC, HFAP and AORN. Since that time, RCS has evolved into a total solutions company, now providing garment repairs, X-ray scanning services, inventory management services, garment recycling and more.
BOTTOM LINE
Early on, we identified there were several infection control and prevention measures in place within facilities today, but X-ray wearables and aprons were generally overlooked. Additionally, many healthcare networks were challenged with how to provide proper care and documentation of their inventories.
