Medline brings fashion, function and value to retail for today’s on-the-go clinician
Mundelein, Ill., June 15, 2015 – Nearly 8 million men and women make up the healthcare professional and technician workforce – one of the largest occupational groups in the country. While their scope of expertise may vary from nurses and physician assistants to pharmacists and technicians, one thing remains consistent – work can be physically demanding. They must also look professional at all times. And now, for the first time, healthcare workers seeking function, fashion and value can find Medline’s unique ave® scrubs line at select Target locations nationwide and on Target.com.
The #avescrubs were specifically created with the on-the-go clinician in mind. Designed for movement, each piece features comfortable four-way stretch fabric, more flattering cuts and sportswear-inspired waist bands. This new offering at retail is manufactured by Medline, a leader in the healthcare work wear market and trusted partner in the healthcare industry across the continuum of care.

“Our company’s history is deeply rooted in textiles and we understand our customers’ world. That’s why we remain committed to listening to our customers and creating products that address their needs and challenges,” says Tim Abate, division president, textiles, Medline. “This new offering at Target is another way we can bring greater accessibility to scrubs that look and feel great in the real world so healthcare workers can perform at their best.”
For nurses, a profession that’s nearly 3 million strong and continues to rank as the most trusted, they are doing more than just caring for the sick – they’re redefining what it means to be a nurse and meeting today’s new challenges head-on. Healthcare reform. Patient population on the rise. Physical risks. Complex conditions. Despite these factors, they still need to juggle home, work, patients and life and project effortless confidence. Patient perception can be impacted by how one dresses.
“Healthcare is changing at a rapid pace but the heart of the profession still beats for the patient,” says Martie Moore, chief nursing officer, Medline. “With all the different hats clinicians wear, they need apparel that can stand-up to the demands of their every day, and have the confidence to express who they are in a professional manner.”
Four styles and colors will be available in-store with an expanded offering available on Target.com. Find out where you can find ave by visiting http://avescrubs.com/about-ave/.
