I am the clinical manager of Surgical Services in a 26 bed OR. We are having extreme difficulty with maintaining scrub clothes for the staff to wear. Everywhere you turn in the hospital and outside, someone is wearing scrub clothes. In an effort to stop this abuse, we are considering using security badges for entrance into the locker rooms and also using scrub clothes vending machines. I guess I would like to see for those who work in a facility that uses the vending machines, their opinion. Is it easy to use? What are the pros and cons to using this type of system versus stocking multiple pairs on a shelf? How much space does this take up? Do you put in a user code to get scrubs? What stops individuals who are not supposed to wear scrubs from getting them out of the machine?
