Houston, TX -- (SBWIRE) -- 09/30/2015 -- Throughout medical institutions, safety, hygiene, sterility and environmental control are all of the utmost importance. This is for the safety of medical professionals, patients and visitors alike. All of these factors are controlled and maintained by environmental services staff, and studies have shown that the quality of the services rendered depends entirely on the motivation and dedication of the staff themselves.
As part of ImageFIRST's national team of experts, ImageFIRST Houston provides sterilized gowns and linens for small to medium medical institutions and practices throughout the region, and they are weighing in on different strategies to effectively motivate environmental services staff to act as hygienic and professional as possible.
