Those who wear scrubs in hospital often underestimate the costs associated with replacing and laundering the hospital issued garments. Extensive financial losses are incurred as a result of lack of controls in existence over the use of scrubs.

Scrubex has been introduced in Ireland by O' Flynn Medical since 2008. It is a distribution system which solves the major issues in scrub management, including unauthorised and inappropriate use, shrinkage, hoarding and lack of availability.

We, at O' Flynn Medical, are aware that space is a premium in hospitals, so the system is designed accordingly. The response to the Scrubex system to date has been extremely positive and has been described as being “ the most effective piece of equipment” installed in a hospital.

The benefits are numerous and include:

• Large financial savings on a permament basis.
• Significant reduction in scrub losses and misuse.
• Saving of valuable time for physicians and staff as correct sizes are readily available.
• Staff reponsible for replenishing supplies can use their time more efficiently as the loading process is quick and easy due to incorporating slide out drawers for loading.
• Prevention of unauthorised users
• Reduction in Environmental footprint.

Overall, Scrubex is an invaluable, convenient and cost- effective system. For further details on how the system works, please click on the slide- show opposite.
