Pittsburgh, PA -- (SBWIRE) -- 12/28/2017 -- The ImageFIRST Healthcare Laundry Specialists' Lancaster location hosted a holiday party for their associates on November 11th.

On the day of the event, members from the Lancaster County Career and Technology Cosmetology class came to the ImageFIRST office and turned the break room into a beauty salon for the female associates. The women in the office got their hair, nails, and makeup done free of charge.

"The women had fun getting all dolled up for the event," explained office manager Danielle Miller. "It was a huge hit. Many of our female associates attended and left feeling excited to spend the night looking pretty with their ImageFIRST family."

The holiday celebration was held later that day at a banquet hall at The Eden Resort in Lancaster, PA, and included dinner, a DJ, and prize raffles. Associates dressed formally, and spent the night dancing and being with each other outside of normal working hours.

Miller stated that ImageFIRST held the event well ahead of the holidays to avoid conflicting with personal commitments.

Pittsburgh, PA -- (SBWIRE) -- 07/10/2017 -- ImageFIRST, which provides healthcare uniforms in the Washington, PA, area and throughout the country, is dedicated to participating in community giving events every quarter, demonstrating the core values of their company. This spring, the ImageFIRST NJ-NY location participated in two different community giving activities. One group of associates volunteered at Eva's Village in Paterson, New Jersey, while another group visited their local Ronald McDonald House.

Eva's Village is a non-profit organization dedicated to helping homeless and disadvantaged individuals. Not only does the organization provide a safe shelter, but it also helps to treat those with addiction and provide medical and dental care to those who cannot afford it. Their non-denominational, faith-based organization values the dignity of each person who comes through their doors. The ImageFIRST associates that participated helped serve lunch to approximately 200 homeless people. The office also gave a monetary donation of $500 to support the organization's efforts.

On May 9, 2017, another ImageFIRST group visited the local Ronald McDonald House. The Ronald McDonald House Charities provide free or low-cost temporary housing for families with children who are undergoing treatment for serious illnesses. The associates spent the day at the Ronald McDonald House cleaning the playroom and all of the children's toys in it. Afterward, they played with some of the children who were staying there. Additionally, the office gave a $500 donation. "The associates came back really satisfied and happy," according to office manager Reyna.

Pittsburgh, PA -- (SBWIRE) -- 03/31/2017 -- ImageFIRST, a leading provider of healthcare uniforms in Washington, PA, believes that holding their processes to their "family standard" makes a difference in the lives of their customers. This standard is simple: ImageFIRST associates do not give their customers' patients any products that they would not give to their own family members.

The first impression that patients have of a medical facility often defines their overall perception of a medical practice, making this family standard approach vitally important.

One way ImageFIRST practices this family standard is through their infection prevention process. Their laundering process meets or exceeds OSHA, CDC, and HLAC standards, and complies with The Joint Commission requirements. This process protects their associates' and patients' well-being, as well as their customers' image and reputation.

The infection prevention process goes further than home laundering or ordinary commercial laundry processes. ImageFIRST's Triple BioShield Protection Process forms the core of the company's overall infection prevention methods.

The Triple BioShield Protection Process includes a wash formula that sterilizes linen products by killing up to 99.999% of infectious pathogens. Furthermore, after each wash, ImageFIRST applies a bacterial-inhibiting coating that keeps bacteria from proliferating on fabric. Finally, all linen is individually wrapped in plastic to protect it while in transit. ImageFIRST performs regular checks of processes to ensure compliance.

ImageFIRST offers only quality products from trusted manufacturers and also hand-inspects and bags all patient gowns by hand. If any are found to be stained, ripped or unsatisfactory, they are immediately replaced.

Interested parties can find out more about how ImageFIRST's family standard makes a difference, and learn more about their scrubs and medical uniforms for sale in the Johnstown, PA, region, by visiting them online at http://pittsburgh.imagefirst.com/ or calling 800-932-7472.

Pittsburgh, PA -- (SBWIRE) -- 12/29/2016 -- As part of their regular community giving initiatives, the teams at ImageFIRST New York and New Jersey partnered with Pocono Health Medical this November to donate blankets, wash cloths, towels and pillowcases to the Homeless Shelter at Stroudsburg Wesleyan Church in East Stroudsburg, PA.

Pittsburgh, PA -- (SBWIRE) -- 09/29/2016 -- Medical textiles and linen, such as healthcare uniforms in Washington, PA, are susceptible to harboring pathogens, meaning that facility managers must make textiles an integral part of their infection prevention plans. However, not all linen and laundry providers are created equal. ImageFIRST, provider of laundry services and linen such as scrub uniforms in New Castle, PA, urges customers to pay close attention to how laundry services describe the cleanliness of their laundry to avoid being misled and to guarantee a quantifiable level of prevention.

Many medical linen and laundry providers settle for the common but misleading label of "hygienically clean" to describe their products. While inoffensive at first glance, the term "hygienically clean" is problematic, because it carries no universal definition. ImageFIRST urges medical facilities to directly question their laundry provider on three key points that determine just how clean their products are. Namely, ImageFIRST recommends that facilities 1) ask for independently verified documentation of products' cleanliness, 2) check for industry certification of the compliance and effectiveness of a facilities laundry processes and 3) familiarize themselves with the provider's entire laundry process.

To aid customers in their infection prevention efforts, ImageFIRST does not adopt the ambiguous definition of "hygienically clean." Instead, all products are guaranteed sanitized, a term that unequivocally asserts that 99.9% of pathogens have been eradicated from a given textile. ImageFIRST accomplishes this precise level of cleanliness through its Triple BioShield Protection® process, which entails a sanitizing wash followed by safeguarding measures such as plastic barriers and antibacterial coating. The company is transparent about its process from start to finish, regularly has products tested by independent lab and freely offers documentation of its industry compliance as well as lab testing results.

When it comes to patient and staff safety, no facility should settle for vague or ambiguous definitions. Luckily, ImageFIRST has the solution. Learn more at http://pittsburgh.imagefirst.com.

Pittsburgh, PA -- (SBWIRE) -- 06/08/2016 -- At ImageFIRST, employees aren't merely employees. At this provider of medical linen, laundry, scrubs, and more in Washington, PA and beyond, employees are referred to as associates, because their involvement in the company and customers' business extends far beyond the ordinary. The company's route sales drivers, called Customer Advocates, exemplify how ImageFIRST's associates go above and beyond for their customers to become true partners in their success.

As the face of the company, Customer Advocates establish and maintain strong customer relationships with everyone they come into contact with during pickup and delivery. Furthermore, while they are route sale drivers in description, Customer Advocates are so much more at heart. They have a thorough knowledge of all ImageFIRST products, and devise creative strategies for customers so that they consistently have cost-effective solutions for greater patient satisfaction on-hand. They ensure that their delivery and pickup are efficient, restock and check inventory for customers so that their facilities operate smoothly, and will take care of particulars like placing linen in warmers, and other details unique to a facility.

One of the most important differences that set Customer Advocates apart from ordinary deliver drivers is their approach to their daily duties. Customer Advocates exemplify and uphold ImageFIRST's core values, including respect for customers, honesty, and a commitment to customer, patient, and associate safety. Customer Advocates always arrive with a smile and enthusiastic attitude, ready to help their customers succeed every day.

It takes someone remarkable to become an ImageFIRST associate. And with incredible benefits, company mission, and culture, ImageFIRST is a remarkable company to work for. Learn more about joining this provider of nurse uniforms in New Castle, PA by visiting their career opportunities page.

Pittsburgh, PA -- (SBWIRE) -- 05/12/2016 -- Recent changes in the healthcare system, such as the passage of the Affordable Care Act and the introduction of the CAHPS surveys, have made the healthcare system more transparent to patients, and reward top performing healthcare facilities based on feedback. Since patients increasingly have more buying power within the healthcare system, they are transitioning to a consumerist mindset and behavior. Now, more than ever, healthcare facilities must focus on delivering not just outstanding medical care but also excellent customer service through a comprehensive experience. ImageFIRST Pittsburgh, a provider of healthcare bed supplies and more to New Castle, PA and the rest of Western Pennsylvania, offers medical linen and laundry services that can help healthcare facilities increase patient satisfaction.

Nowhere is the new wave of healthcare transparency more apparent than in online review sites like Yelp, where patients can leave honest feedback about their experiences at healthcare facilities. Over half of Yelp's millions of healthcare reviews—which date back to 2004—were written in the past two years, further proving that consumer transparency in healthcare in on the rise. Overwhelmingly, patients who leave these reviews focus primarily not on the quality of the medical care they received but on factors related to customer service experiences such as wait time, billing, and the friendliness of the facility's staff.

ImageFIRST Pittsburgh can help by providing products that assure patients that the quality of their experience is foremost in their healthcare providers' minds. ImageFIRST products like scrubs, medical uniforms, patient gowns, sheets, curtains, and more in Johnstown, PA and elsewhere are hand-inspected for quality, sanitized (through a process that kills up to 99.999% of pathogens), and individually wrapped for assurance that patients can see. Furthermore, the company's Comfort Care line of patient gowns is made of a uniquely soft, cozy material guaranteed to enhance patient perception of a facility.

In addition to products of remarkable quality, ImageFIRST Pittsburgh also offers laundry and inventory management services designed to relieve busy staff members of tasks like inventory stocking. Each ImageFIRST customer is provided with a Customer Advocate, who not only fulfills the role of delivery driver, but also stocks linen, ensures that inventory counts are accurate, assists customers with their billing, and overall acts as an extra team member and partner in the customer's success.

With locations across the United States and Puerto Rico, ImageFIRST continues to provide remarkable medical laundry and linen services to customers who wish to enhance the patient experience.

Pittsburgh, PA -- (SBWIRE) -- 02/02/2016 -- ImageFIRST Pittsburgh does a lot more than provide laundry services and deliver uniforms, scrubs, and more in the Pittsburgh, PA area. This renowned company also makes it a priority to ensure that their clients are notified of all of the most recent changes and trends within the healthcare industry. In fact, ImageFIRST Pittsburgh would like to shed light on a recent Gallup poll that indicated how nursing continued to rank as the most-trusted profession in the United States this past year.

The findings of the poll, which can be viewed here, made it known that nearly 85% of participants felt that they could trust nurses more than individuals in any other profession. Additionally, according to the American Nurse Association (ANA), this is the 14th year in a row that Gallup reported that nursing has been voted as the most honest and ethical profession. Almost all of those who voted for nurses even rated their ethical and honesty standards as "high" or "very high," which ended up being over 15 percentage points higher than the runner-up profession, pharmacists.

The main reason ImageFIRST Pittsburgh encourages not only their clients to take the results of this poll into consideration, but also everyone in the health care industry, is because they know how important it is to recognize those often unsung heroes—nurses. Furthermore, a recent Nursing Special Report released by Press Ganey also demonstrated that the environment a nurse works in can influence the experience a patient has at a healthcare facility. And, if there is one thing that ImageFIRST is good at, it is helping medical institutions improve the experiences that their staff, and, of course, patients, have at their facilities that can, in turn, improve their reputations.

Pittsburgh, PA -- (SBWIRE) -- 12/23/2015 -- ImageFIRST Pittsburgh is a leading provider of high-quality patient and staff apparel, nurse scrubs, and more in Pittsburgh, PA. However, in addition to providing these services, one of the things that the company does is aid their clients in staying abreast of all of the latest trends and changes within the healthcare industry. In fact, this remarkable company would like to let both current and potential clients know that there was a new Nursing Special Report released by Pres Ganey, an organization that helps healthcare facilities understand what they need to improve the patient experience.

The report, "The Influence of Nurse Work Environment on Patient, Payment and Nurse Outcomes in Acute Care Settings," sheds light on how Press Ganey discovered that the environment a nurse works in can directly affect the experience a patient has at a medical facility. Some of the findings in the report even demonstrated that some Hospital Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems (HCAHPS) surveys received positive feedback because of the attention that they received from nurses or RNs during their stay. Lastly, the report also illustrates how Press Ganey saw that environments that were positive for the nurse also affected how well they treated patients, and thus impacted the scores that patients gave on the HCAHPS.

As a company that helps medical institutions improve not only the experience their patients have at their facility but also that of their staff, ImageFIRST Pittsburgh hopes that current and potential clients take the findings of this report into consideration for the future.

Pittsburgh, PA -- (SBWIRE) -- 11/20/2015 -- ImageFIRST Pittsburgh, an organization that provides laundry and linen services in and around Pittsburgh, PA, is proud to announce that, this past October, they introduced their new Pink Plush Robe-Style Gowns. What's more, this gown was also released in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Furthermore, for every client who rented a gown, the company made a donation to the Susan G. Komen® foundation, a well-known national breast cancer organization dedicated to providing funds to aid breast cancer research and education.

Their new pink gown is the most recent addition to their Comfort Care line and is made of the same unexpectedly soft, warm and lightweight fabric as the line's other gowns.

Pittsburgh, PA -- (SBWIRE) -- 10/05/2015 -- ImageFIRST, a leading national healthcare laundry services provider, is proud to announce that they have partnered with the Cancer Treatment Centers for America® (CTCA). CTCA is a destination cancer hospital that has five centers throughout the United States. They take pride in having everything that a cancer patient could need under one roof, such as a salon and rehab therapy. In all, the facility sets itself apart from others because they are very "patient-centered," and focus mainly on taking patients with cancer.

While the main focus of the CTCA is treating and caring for patients with cancer, the organization also makes it one of their top priorities to ensure that all patients are safe, and that they have good and clean linen. Inevitably, they make sure that everything they do is above and beyond. Therefore, one of the reasons why the CTCA chose to partner with ImageFIRST is because they recognize that this is something that the laundry services provider also places a high emphasis on.

In regards to this partnership, a representative of CTCA had this to say, "What's so special about ImageFIRST is that they have the same aspirations that we have. They care about the quality of linen that they give us to give to the patients. And, it's a beautiful thing when the patients say to us, 'Oh, these sheets are so soft. And the pillows, did you change the fabric? Or, the blankets smell so wonderful.' So, this is a partnership that we do not want to lose."

ImageFIRST looks forward to their continued partnership with the Cancer Treatment Centers for America®, and also pledges that every client they take on will receive these same exceptional services.

ImageFIRST Pittsburgh offers all of the products and exceptional services that many other locations do across the U.S. and Puerto Rico.
