To keep sales reps from donning scrubs outside of hospitals, healthcare facilities are installing scrubs vending machines for observers in the OR, according to an article on the Orlando Sentinel website.
Some reps would put on their scrubs at home and wear them directly into the operating room.
Every package in the "Scrub Port" has a scrub, a red bouffant and shoe covers. The reps get printed security badges that identify them by name, company and the hospital the scrubs were purchased from.
The badges turn red eight hours after being printed, showing that the scrubs are invalid for future use. Each packet is about $7.95.
