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.

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.

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!

SSIs and HAIs are some of the most preventable harms in healthcare, and some of the most overlooked sources are things we wear.

After hearing Bill’s MRSA story, Elle broke down why lead aprons belong in the infection prevention conversation. They’re worn across multiple cases and patients, they’re stored in shared spaces, and they’re often left out of routine cleaning protocols.

Wearing clean lead is about more than comfort or routine, it is about safety at every level.

Lead garments can harbor bacteria and contaminants that may be transferred to patients or patient objects, increasing the risk of SSI’s.

By ensuring your lead is properly cleaned, you are taking an active step in protecting yourself, reducing contamination risks, and safeguarding your patients.

When was the last time your team’s lead was cleaned?

Ringworm in the OR?!

On the latest episode of Culture Positive, RCS Co-Founder Justin McKay tells how wearing a hospital-owned lead apron in the OR gave him...ringworm?!

What started as one rash turned out to be a gap in how hospitals protect their staff and patients. Closing that gap is why RadCare Services exists.

What are biofilms?
Biofilms are a colony of bacteria that sticks to a surface and builds a protective layer around itself. Once they form, a quick wipe with a short contact time mostly slides across the top. The bacteria underneath survive and come back.

That's why our process has two steps. Clean first to physically break up the biofilm, then disinfect kills what's left.

Wipes have a place. They just can't do this job by themselves.
