      <title>ImageFIRST Uses UHF RFID Technology to Manage Client's Linen Inventory</title>
      <link>http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p>San Francisco, CA -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.sbwire.com/">SBWIRE</a>) -- 12/28/2017 --  At a large New Jersey health system, ImageFIRST Healthcare Laundry Specialists recently used UHF RFID technology to help a customer manage their linen inventory.<br />
<br />
A nationwide <a class="extlink"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow noopener" title="healthcare laundry and linen service, ImageFIRST services medical facilities from San Francisco, CA" href="http://san-francisco.imagefirst.com/healthcare-bed-linen-san-francisco">healthcare laundry and linen service, ImageFIRST services medical facilities from San Francisco, CA</a>, to New Jersey with linen, scrubs, patient gowns, and more. Recently, an ImageFIRST customer realized that some of their inventory were missing. <br />
<br />
ImageFIRST supplies the customer, a breast center of a New Jersey health system, with Comfort Care robes, which are unique due to their unusually soft fabric. Reportedly, the Comfort Care robes were so popular with staff and patients that other departments of the health system were borrowing them without the breast center or ImageFIRST knowing. With other departments borrowing the robes, managing the inventory became difficult.<br />
  <br />
To find the missing robes and control the customer&apos;s inventory, ImageFIRST leveraged UHF RFID technology. ImageFIRST embeds each Comfort Care robe with an RFID chip, and associates use in-field handheld garment scanners to read the chips. The breast center&apos;s dedicated ImageFIRST representative, Customer Advocate Jay Blumenfeld, uses the handheld scanner to scan clean robes, as well as scan and retrieve soiled gowns. The technology allows him to keep a detailed, accurate inventory for the customer.<br />
<br />
In this instance, Blumenfeld took steps beyond his usual duties to find and return the borrowed Comfort Care robes. He headed to the main hospital soil room, where ImageFIRST does not normally visit, to scan the linen. The scanner allowed Blumenfeld to locate the missing robes easily (without digging through soiled linen) and return them to the customer.<br />
<br />
"The use of the UHF RFID technology and in-field scanners helps us partner with clients to solve preventable issues and better manage their garment inventory to control their costs," said Gary Stephens, service director for ImageFIRST in northern New Jersey. <br />
<br />
He added, "They love their Customer Advocate Jay Blumenfeld and all aspects of our customized, professional services!"<br />

      <title>ImageFIRST Upholds "Family Standard" of Safety and Quality</title>
      <link>http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p>San Francisco, CA -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.sbwire.com/">SBWIRE</a>) -- 04/03/2017 --  ImageFIRST, a <a class="extlink"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow noopener" title="medical scrub and uniform supplier and launderer in San Francisco, CA" href="http://san-francisco.imagefirst.com/medical-scrub-uniforms-san-francisco">medical scrub and uniform supplier and launderer in San Francisco, CA</a> (and throughout the rest of the US and Puerto Rico), recently shared the company&apos;s belief that upholding its "family standard" makes a true difference in patients&apos; experiences at medical facilities. <br />
<br />
According to ImageFIRST, the family standard is based on the idea of treating patients as if they are a family member. "Our experience tells us that when it comes to doing something for a patient, if you stop and ask yourself, &apos;would I treat my family member this way?&apos; it alters the way one approaches care and improves that experience for the patient," said Magali Tranie, ImageFIRST&apos;s director of marketing.<br />
<br />
ImageFIRST applies the family standard to all of its operations, including their robust infection prevention practices. ImageFIRST believes that not all laundering is created equal, and that many types of laundry do not adequately clean. <br />
<br />
By contrast, the company&apos;s comprehensive infection prevention process consists of removing up to 99.999% of pathogens from their products by means of their proprietary Triple BioShield Protection®. That process includes killing pathogens on contact during the wash process, applying an antibacterial coating that prevents pathogens from proliferating on linen and individually wrapping products in plastic to ensure safe transportation. <br />
<br />
By offering sanitized and high-quality products, ImageFIRST believes that their customers can optimize the care they provide and improve their patients&apos; satisfaction.<br />

      <title>ImageFIRST Introduces New, Comprehensive Scrub Program</title>
      <link>http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p>San Francisco, CA -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.sbwire.com/">SBWIRE</a>) -- 01/17/2017 --  ImageFIRST, the <a class="extlink"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow noopener" title="medical uniform and scrub provider in San Francisco, CA" href="http://san-francisco.imagefirst.com/medical-scrub-uniforms-san-francisco">medical uniform and scrub provider in San Francisco, CA</a>, recently announced the expansion of their comprehensive scrubs solution program. <br />
<br />
Facilities that partner with ImageFIRST get quality medical scrubs, a cost-effective program and inventory management that gives staff more time to focus on patient care. <br />
<br />
The scrubs provided by ImageFIRST San Francisco are produced by top manufacturers and are hand-inspected to ensure optimal appearance. They come in a variety of sizing options including women&apos;s, men&apos;s and unisex, and include tall sizes. <br />
<br />
All products are laundered with infection prevention that exceeds industry standards, and the color-fast technology protects colors from fading through washes. <br />
<br />
The ImageFIRST scrub program is fully-managed by a dedicated representative, called a Customer Advocate, who delivers scrubs, stocks shelves and ensures accurate inventory of all products so that the staff will always have the sizes they need, when they need them.  <br />
<br />
Each scrub is embedded with safe and proven RFID technology to allow for tracking, reporting and better inventory management. The scrub use report by sizes helps facilities carry the right sizes and saving money by carrying less of the less used sizes in inventory.<br />
<br />
With the use of RFID technology, healthcare providers experience minimized scrub loss which saves them money, and reduced staff frustration with the fully-managed inventory. <br />

      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p>San Francisco, CA -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.sbwire.com/">SBWIRE</a>) -- 08/16/2016 --  The leading <a class="extlink"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow noopener" title="medical scrub and uniform supplier in San Francisco, CA" href="http://san-francisco.imagefirst.com/medical-scrub-uniforms-san-francisco">medical scrub and uniform supplier in San Francisco, CA</a> is asking medical facilities to ask themselves three questions that will help determine if they have complete infection prevention plans in place. ImageFIRST San Francisco presents these critical questions in a <a class="extlink"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow noopener" title="case study" href="http://www.imagefirst.com/High-Quality-Patient-Gowns-Translate-To-Greater-Patient-Perception">case study</a> that is available for complimentary download via their website. <br />
<br />
ImageFIRST&apos;s case study is a reaction to the idea in healthcare that a patient&apos;s perception of his or her facility experience (i.e. waiting room time, customer service, cleanliness) will play a large part in that person&apos;s perception of the quality of care he or she receives there. Thus, the medical community must continue to take steps toward providing patients with a positive overall experience. <br />
<br />
Medical facilities are continuously updating their plans in place dedicated to preventing healthcare-associated infections (HAIs). As a starting point, ImageFIRST San Francisco is recommending that facilities set effective linen and laundry inventory management practices in place, and store their inventories properly. ImageFIRST San Francisco is also reminding its existing and potential clients that an effective vendor will work with them to implement solutions, and that the right laundry and service provider will be dedicated to exceeding sanitation standards and protocols. <br />
<br />
Statistics show that a patient who feels comfortable in his or her sanitized hospital gown, bedsheets and towels will automatically think more positively of a medical facility visit. ImageFIRST San Francisco offers high quality linens to facilities throughout the Bay Area, as well as <a class="extlink"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow noopener" title="scrubs and uniforms in San Francisco, CA" href="http://san-francisco.imagefirst.com/medical-scrub-uniforms-san-francisco">scrubs and uniforms in San Francisco, CA</a>.

      <title>ImageFIRST Helps Students Succeed by Partnering with a Philadelphia High School</title>
      <link>http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</link>

Whether they are serving an outpatient facility like an ambulatory surgery center, imaging center or a family practitioner, or an <a class="extlink"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow noopener" title="inpatient unit" href="http://www.imagefirst.com/hs-solutions">inpatient unit</a>, healthcare industry customers trust ImageFIRST San Francisco to provide them with a remarkable quality of service. <br />
<br />
The company is also revered for its constant community engagement. One of its recent endeavors involves a partnership between the company&apos;s headquarter office and Philadelphia&apos;s Cristo Rey High School, located in North Philadelphia near La Salle University&apos;s campus. Cristo Rey, a private school that partners with businesses to offer students real-life work experience, has been turning heads and making news recently because of its proven success. All 86 seniors from the 2016 inaugural graduating class were accepted into four-year colleges. Their success stories inspired many, and the program is growing stronger as Cristo Rey&apos;s and ImageFIRST&apos;s partnership continues. <br />
<br />
Take one student&apos;s story, for example: Simone Lymon helped the ImageFIRST HR department with filing and other projects during her junior year. She loved working for the company, and continued on with them as a senior, where she found her stride in the marketing department. After working with ImageFIRST on marketing projects, she was so interested in the subject that she decided to pursue the field in college next year. Lymon is a member of the new high school&apos;s inaugural graduating class. <br />

      <title>ImageFIRST San Francisco Shares Insight Into How They Can Help Healthcare Facilities Improve Patient Perceptions</title>
      <link>http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p>San Francisco, CA -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.sbwire.com/">SBWIRE</a>) -- 05/12/2016 --  In addition to being a provider of patient apparel, <a class="extlink"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow noopener" title="scrubs, and uniforms in San Francisco, CA" href="http://san-francisco.imagefirst.com/medical-scrub-uniforms-san-francisco">scrubs, and uniforms in San Francisco, CA</a> and beyond, ImageFIRST San Francisco makes it a priority to guarantee that their clients stay up-to-date on all of the latest developments in the healthcare industry. In fact, this remarkable company would like to share an insight into how their solutions and services can help healthcare facilities get what they need to improve and better focus on patient care. Furthermore, they would also like to shed light on how, more than ever, how patients are using review sites such as Google Maps and Yelp to share their experiences, and how healthcare facilities can benefit from the reviews they leave.<br />
<br />
There is no doubt that over the past couple years, patients are turning to Yelp, Google Maps, and various social media sites such as Facebook and Twitter, to articulate their feelings and thoughts about non-medical issues such as billing, wait times during appointments, doctor and nurse behavior, and the condition of a facility. Choosing to partner with a company such as ImageFIRST San Francisco will allow healthcare facilities to better focus on providing exemplary patient care, and also improve their operations.<br />
<br />
One of the many ways that the company is able to do this is because they will take on and help to improve the facility&apos;s laundry aspects. Aside from picking up and delivering laundry, ImageFIRST San Francisco provides inventory management services and apparel that will make patients feel like they are staying at a day spa, and not a medical facility.<br />
<br />

      <title>A Personal Story About the Patient Experience from ImageFIRST San Francisco</title>
      <link>http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p>San Francisco, CA -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.sbwire.com/">SBWIRE</a>) -- 03/01/2016 --  Behind the scenes at healthcare facilities all across America, ImageFIRST and its numerous locations are working to pull back the curtain, so to speak, and shed light on patients and their families during potentially tough times. By asking questions like "What makes an exceptional experience from a patient&apos;s point-of-view?" the company has been able to develop healthcare linen solutions that are designed to enhance the patient experience and make every stay at a healthcare facility as comfortable as possible.<br />
<br />
Recently, one of the company&apos;s employees shared a personal experience he had with ImageFIRST&apos;s products. About a month before he started working for ImageFIRST, Darrell Boyles, one of the company&apos;s General Managers, noted that his mother passed away on ImageFIRST sheets while wearing an ImageFIRST gown. "It took some time to hit me," he said. The General Manager added that his mother had been a hospice patient for months, and the fact that she spent her final days being cared for with ImageFIRST&apos;s products made for a very personal connection. Providing her with as much comfort as possible during her last moments was something Boyles is very grateful for. <br />
<br />
Hospitals, hospices and other healthcare facilities that enlist the services of ImageFIRST San Francisco or one of its nationwide-partner branches need not worry about their patients being uncomfortable. In fact, doctors, nurses and other medical personnel can also experience the same comfort, because ImageFIRST <a class="extlink"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow noopener" title="San Francisco also provides uniform scrubs" href="http://san-francisco.imagefirst.com/medical-scrub-uniforms-san-francisco">San Francisco also provides uniform scrubs</a>. <br />

      <title>New Video by ImageFIRST San Francisco Explains Their ValueFIRST Proposition</title>
      <link>http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p>San Francisco, CA -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.sbwire.com/">SBWIRE</a>) -- 02/02/2016 --  ImageFIRST San Francisco, the leading laundry service specialist, believes that the medical facilities they provide for should not have to deal with the burden of reconciling invoices, handling inventory and deciphering bills. With a passion for helping their customers meet their goals, the company provides comprehensive cost management services to healthcare facilities so that they can put their main focus on caring for patients. Recently, ImageFIRST San Francisco released an informative video on YouTube to teach individuals about their unique proposition called ValueFIRST. The video is titled "A Good Investment with ValueFIRST" and explains how healthcare facilities can get the best value for the medical laundry services they need with the assistance of inventory management, transparent billing and comprehensive cost management.  <br />

      <title>ImageFIRST San Francisco Encourages Awareness About the Spread of Consumerism in Healthcare</title>
      <link>http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p>San Francisco, CA -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.sbwire.com/">SBWIRE</a>) -- 12/23/2015 --  Just like the rest of the healthcare industry, ImageFIRST San Francisco is shining a light on consumerism.  The company, known for its <a class="extlink"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow noopener" title="uniform scrubs services in San Francisco, CA" href="http://san-francisco.imagefirst.com/medical-scrub-uniforms-san-francisco">uniform scrubs services in San Francisco, CA</a>, and renowned for its mission to improve overall patient satisfaction, is encouraging its customers, and anyone else who is interested, to learn more about what this means for all of the parties involved.<br />
<br />
At an annual networking conference this past November, the HBS offered insights from a number of high-profile industry speakers on the issues of transparency and consumerism in the healthcare industry. Keith Pitts, Vice Chairman from Tenet Health, discussed the quality that consumers are looking for. Among the many topics he discussed, Mr. Pitts made especially poignant notes about how service can be used as a measure to quantify consumer happiness; a point that ring true to ImageFIRST San Francisco, because the company prioritizes it for its customers. <br />
<br />
Another speaker, Josh Flum, Executive VP of Pharmacy Services at CVS, shared his views on consumers having voices, stating that they represent experience and therefore reflect a company&apos;s level of service.  Mr. Flum also went into detail about the growth of high deductible health plans and how that will force people to make more informed decisions about their healthcare providers at an unprecedented high frequency in the near future.<br />

      <title>ImageFIRST San Francisco Recognizes Their Outstanding Team of Associates</title>
      <link>http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p>San Francisco, CA -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.sbwire.com/">SBWIRE</a>) -- 11/23/2015 --  Some companies like to keep their employees under a microscope, but ImageFIRST San Francisco likes to keep their associates under the spotlight. For ImageFIRST San Francisco, their associates are truly at the heart of their purpose, and they take pride in the people behind its logo. In fact, aside from providing <a class="extlink"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow noopener" title="healthcare linen and laundry services to San Francisco, CA" href="http://san-francisco.imagefirst.com/">healthcare linen and laundry services to San Francisco, CA</a>, associates are the company&apos;s number one priority, because of the role they play in their mission and corporate culture.<br />
<br />
ImageFIRST San Francisco believes that it would not be able to make good on its mission to enhance overall patient experience without the efforts of its associate staff. Given that, it should come as no surprise that the company regularly celebrates its team of associates in a few ways, one of which is with their annual ImageFIRST Day. On ImageFIRST Day, the company takes time to recognize and celebrate the achievements of its associates. It is a day of fun that started back in 2014, and the company certainly looks to continue this tradition for many years to come. <br />
<br />
Of course, ImageFIRST San Francisco recognizes associate birthdays and anniversaries, but the company also has several programs in place to help its associates get themselves into the spotlight. For example, ImageFIRST San Francisco&apos;s Associate Recognition Program is designed to lend credence to the excellence displayed by associates by including them in their ImageFIRST All Stars and ImageFIRST Council of Excellence. <br />
<br />
Medical facilities interested in working with ImageFIRST and their team of associates and Customer Advocates can get in touch with the company by calling 1-800-932-7472.

      <title>Captain Remarkable, ImageFIRST's Resident Superhero, Shares Insight Into What Makes Them So Remarkable</title>
      <link>http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p>San Francisco, CA -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.sbwire.com/">SBWIRE</a>) -- 11/05/2015 --  At ImageFIRST San Francisco, as well as every other location across the country, associates and Customer Advocates make it their top priorities to be respectful, honest, safe and, most of all, remarkable. In fact, in two YouTube videos, ImageFIRST&apos;s resident superhero, Captain Remarkable, gives clients an insight into what makes the company, as a whole, so remarkable and different from others in their industry.<br />
<br />
In the "<a class="extlink"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow noopener" title="Meet Captain Remarkable" href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tobm9WxnY-o">Meet Captain Remarkable</a>" video, the superhero, dressed in his purple costume, shows how he visited several associates and Customer Advocates (at different locations) and asked them to answer the question, "So, why do you think ImageFIRST is so remarkable?" And, what was the thing that the first two people interviewed both said? It was their associates, and how they are willing to go above and beyond for their clients, and the communities that they serve.<br />
<br />
One person interviewed even described how one of their Customer Advocates went so far as buying a shovel from Home Depot to clear the walkway of a client that was snowed-in so that they were able to have their linen. In the second video, "<a class="extlink"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow noopener" title="Captain Remarkable Flies Again" href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Gfumx1vIBA">Captain Remarkable Flies Again</a>!" the audience gets a little glimpse into the superhero&apos;s history, and, of course, a greater insight into what their associates and Customer Advocates do every day to make the company remarkable.<br />
<br />
ImageFIRST San Francisco hopes that both potential and current clients will have an even better understanding of the company&apos;s culture after viewing their Captain Remarkable videos.<br />

      <title>ImageFIRST San Francisco Announces Cubicle Curtain Cleaning Program Is Now Available</title>
      <link>http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p>San Francisco, CA -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.sbwire.com/">SBWIRE</a>) -- 10/01/2015 --  ImageFIRST San Francisco is pleased to announce that their Cubicle Curtain Cleaning Program is now available. By utilizing this new program, inpatient facilities throughout the San Francisco Bay Area will not only be able to take customer satisfaction to an even greater level, but they will help prevent the spread of disease and infection.<br />
<br />
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) indicates that 1 in 25 United States&apos; hospital patients catch at least one healthcare-associated infection (HAI), which can mean that hospitals may find themselves having to pay out money for damages. What&apos;s more, a recent study done by scientists found that 20% to 40% of HAIs could be traced back to contaminated healthcare workers&apos; hands. Therefore, to help their customers stop the spread of disease, ImageFIRST San Francisco took the initiative and introduced their comprehensive Cubicle Curtain Cleaning Program.<br />
<br />
Inpatient facilities in the San Francisco area will be happy to know that this program is available without any up-front cost, and that their cubicle curtains are specially-designed and easily changed. In fact, once they install the new curtains for a client, the Customer Advocate assigned to the facility&apos;s account will oversee the regular changing and laundering. Lastly, their associates scan the RFID chips in the curtains to ensure proper documentation and inventory control.<br />
<br />
When inpatient facilities desire a cost-effective way to keep their cubicle curtains fresh, ImageFIRST San Francisco is the company to call.

      <title>ImageFIRST San Francisco Announces Cubicle Curtain Cleaning Program</title>
      <link>http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p>San Francisco, CA -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.sbwire.com/">SBWIRE</a>) -- 08/31/2015 --  Just like many other ImageFIRST locations across the U.S., <a class="extlink"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow noopener" title="ImageFIRST San Francisco" href="http://san-francisco.imagefirst.com/">ImageFIRST San Francisco</a> is now offering a Cubicle Curtain Cleaning Program to help their clients combat healthcare-associated infections (HAIs). According to the Center for Disease Control &amp; Prevention (CDC), 1 in 25 U.S.-based hospital patients catch at least one  HAI. Up to 40% of HAI to this day can be traced back to contaminated healthcare workers&apos; hands. Additionally, recent studies show that privacy curtains are frequently contaminated by multiple potentially dangerous bacteria like MRSA.<br />
<br />
The decision to start their Cubicle Curtain Cleaning Program was an easy one. Furthermore, Joe Geraghty, Chief Operating Office for ImageFIRST, stated that because the company already sanitizes linens with their unique Triple BioShield Protection® process, providing this program would continue to make them a hospital&apos;s ideal healthcare laundry and linen provider.<br />
<br />
Those who choose to take advantage of ImageFIRST San Francisco&apos;s Cubicle Curtain Cleaning Program will find it to be nothing but a worthwhile investment. Not only is there no up-front cost to get specially-designed curtains installed, but their dedicated professionals will regularly remove the dirty curtains and replace them with clean ones. The ImageFIRST representative also scans the curtains&apos; RFID technology to track each panel and provide infection prevention documentation.   <br />
<br />
ImageFIRST San Francisco offers all of the services and products that many other locations do across the United States. However, the company&apos;s new Cubicle Curtain Cleaning Program is only available at certain locations. To hear more about this new program, or any of the other services provided by ImageFIRST San Francisco, please visit their website.<br />
