Who is eligible to receive apparel?
Currently, employees with clinical and patient facing positions are eligible to receive apparel. An employee’s budget of apparel from Providence is based on their status, commonly referred to as FTE, in the system (full-time, part-time, and casual).
How many pieces can I get?
For new employees in scrub apparel, Providence will provide:
- 1 Shift: 1 Set
- 2 shifts: 2 sets
- 3 shifts: 3 sets
- 4 shifts: 4 sets
- 5 shifts: 5 sets
You may use your budget to order any combination of pieces, but we ask that you order at least one complete uniform (top and bottom). Staff will also be provided with an annual budget to refresh their uniform.
What happens to the budget in my account if I don’t spend it all?
Your budget credit will expire 30 days prior to year end.
Is there anywhere to try on the scrubs before purchasing?
No, at this moment there are no locations to try on new apparel.
How do New Hires or employees who have transferred into a new role order their apparel?
New hires and transferred employees will receive an email with instructions when they become eligible to order their apparel.
Where will my order be shipped?
Your order will be shipped to the address you provide at check out. You may not change the shipping address after your order is placed. Please provide a home address that is safe and reliable. We cannot ship to PO Boxes or to Providence facilities. Please take care when adding your address to your order as addresses are not audited and will print on the shipping label exactly as they are entered on your order.
Can I mix and match colors if I don’t want to wear a solid color?
No, employees must wear the provided uniforms from the new online store. The guiding principle of the apparel program is to help patients identify their caregivers by color. Staff must adhere to the new program in order to achieve our Patients First goal.
Can I mix and match any style scrub top, pant or jacket?
Fabrics retain colors differently so for the best color match, order scrub tops, pants and jackets from the same collection. For instance, any item in the Core Stretch line can be worn together and any item in the Infinity line work best together.
I have already used my budget from Providence, can I purchase more apparel?
Yes, employees are able to order additional pieces using a credit card at any time.
I need a medical/religious/cultural accommodation to the apparel program. What should I do?
Please email Mission Linen at providenceapparel@missionlinen.com to let us know you are in need of an accommodation.
How should I care for my new clothing?
For best results, please wash your uniforms in cold water with non-bleach detergent. The cold water will help the colors stay vibrant longer. After washing, hang your apparel to air dry or place them in the dryer on a warm temperature, and immediately hang once dried, to avoid wrinkles. Do not bleach your apparel.
Annual Apparel Replenishment
Will we receive a yearly replenishment for scrubs? If so, when?
Yes, an annual budget will be provided to staff to refresh their uniforms depending on job status (full-time, part-time and casual).
