How much time is your staff spending managing lead aprons?
For most departments, it’s more than anyone realizes.

Techs pull garments off the racks for inspection.

A procedure room goes offline for hours just to get it all done.

Someone (supposedly) cleans them by hand between cases...

That’s time your team isn’t spending with patients, and room time you aren’t billing for.

RCS takes the whole job off your plate:

✅ Cleaning & disinfection
✅ X-ray inspections
✅ Repairs & rentals
✅ Inventory management
✅ New lead & equipment
✅ EPA-approved disposal

Your staff gets their time back, your rooms stay open, and you stop paying for the hidden cost of doing it all in house.

Every department has a few skeletons in the closet...

This Halloween, take a peek at the lead apron rack. Visible stains, frayed straps, that one apron nobody’s sure has ever been cleaned.

Spooky? Sure.

But it’s also fixable.

Cleaning, inspection, repair, tracking: we handle the scary stuff so your team can focus on patients.

Happy Halloween from all of us at RadCare Services 🎃

Surgical site infections are among the most studied problems in healthcare, and among the most stubborn.

Every best practice exists because someone noticed a source of risk and decided it wasn’t acceptable.

As International Infection Prevention Week wraps up, here’s one more for that list: the lead apron.

Surgical teams wear them for hours, often inches from the sterile field. In OR settings, 87.8% were found contaminated and 12% tested positive for MRSA (Gilat et al., 2020).

Yet 27.2% of aprons are never cleaned by their department.

A contaminated X-ray garment in the OR adds risk, and it’s one of the simplest contributors that can be taken away.

Taking it away looks like this: professional cleaning and disinfection verified with ATP testing, annual x-ray inspection, and documented records in RadComply so your team can prove it whenever someone asks.

Every gap closed in SSI prevention started with someone noticing it. Thank you to the infection preventionists who keep noticing.

AORN surveyed 173 perioperative workers about their lead aprons.

78% said they’d worn a soiled one.
48% said they’d never spot-cleaned it.

That apron goes from patient to patient and from case to case, and it sits on the shoulders of the people doing the work. In most departments, nobody owns cleaning it.

So here’s the question: does your hospital have a best practice for lead cleaning?

If you’re not sure, that’s your answer. Let’s fix it. 👉 Link in bio / DM us

Happy International Infection Prevention Week to the infection preventionists who keep healthcare safe.

Every infection that never happens, every outbreak caught early and every patient who goes home without complications reflects the standards you hold.

You’re the ones who ask the hard questions, train new staff, push for better processes and keep checking the details everyone else misses. Infection preventionists have been doing that for generations, and patients are safer because of it.

We see the impact of your work every day in the departments we serve. We’re grateful to work alongside teams who take patient safety this seriously.

Thank you for all you do.

Lead aprons are there to protect you. Most departments assume that’s the end of the story.

For RCS co-founder Justin McKay, a shared garment led to a ringworm diagnosis, a week of heavy prescriptions, and a lot of questions nobody wanted to answer.

So he started working the problem from a garage. Power washers. Wipes. Trial and error. Then they visited the manufacturers.

One engineer warned them never to use alcohol, and an hour later the same company’s director handed them alcohol-based wipes.

That’s how RadCare Services got its start.

Chapter one of Justin’s story is live. 👇

There’s no regulatory requirement to X-ray inspect lead aprons. Most facilities do a hand check: put on gloves and feel for cracks. You won’t find anything that way.

This is the part that keeps me up at night.

When a thousand garments come through for their first service, 12-13% have holes, cracks, or tears. People are assuming their PPE protects them, and it doesn’t...

We've heard it all: people who wore damaged lead for four years without knowing.
A pregnant tech asking us to check hers “just to make sure.”

These are our teammates. We should be taking care of each other.

We had so much fun working with Paige on her very own custom-fitted lead! Our team went onsite to measure her, she designed every detail herself.

✔️ A vest-and-skirt style she picked so her back doesn’t hurt at the end of a long shift
✔️ Lumbar support on the skirt (and pockets!)
✔️ Magnet closures, so no more Velcro pulling her hair

Thank you, Paige, for trusting us, and thank you to Techno-Aide for bringing it to life!
