Introducing LinenCARE™: Turning Linen Awareness into Linen Action
Print this Article | Send to Colleague
Every hospital and laundry leader knows the struggle: red-bagged linen piling up, carts stashed in closets, scrubs slipping out the door, and everyday misuse quietly draining budgets. These challenges don’t just increase costs – they put unnecessary strain on the critical relationship between laundries and hospitals.
That’s why ALM developed LinenCARE™, a first-of-its-kind linen awareness program designed to create lasting impact. More than a quick training or a one-off poster, LinenCARE™ provides ongoing education and reinforcement to keep linen handling top of mind across every level of the organization.
What makes LinenCARE™ different?
- Engaging microlearning videos that address real-world misuse scenarios
- Posters, guides, and trivia challenges to reinforce best practices daily
- A manager playbook to measure and sustain success
- A QR-powered “Learn More Hub” for easy access to refreshers anytime
- By combining these elements, LinenCARE™ delivers consistent messaging across laundries, hospitals, and frontline teams—closing the “last mile” where misuse most often occurs.
The stakes are high: studies show as much as 90% of hospital linen is lost before reaching its full lifespan, largely due to preventable mishandling. LinenCARE™ directly tackles that challenge, helping organizations cut waste, reduce costs, and protect patient care.
What’s more, the program carries the endorsement of HLAC, TRSA, and TRSA’s Hygienically Clean Certification – a rare alignment that validates LinenCARE™ as the trusted industry standard for linen awareness and accountability.
Learn how LinenCARE™ can support your teams, safeguard your linen, and deliver measurable results.
