San Juan, Puerto Rico -- (SBWire) -- 12/30/2015 --With the flu season already underway in most areas, it's particularly important to pay attention to the yearly advice offered by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). As always, it's impossible to completely predict the seriousness of the coming flu season, whether it will develop into an epidemic, and which flu virus ends up causing the most problems. While it's also difficult to estimate when exactly the flu season will hit its peak, generally speaking it happens between December and February, which is why the CDC advice on preparing with precautions like vaccinations and awareness of hygiene is currently particularly timely.

The influenza season also plays a part in the on-going challenges of infection prevention in medical facilities. ImageFIRST Puerto Rico, a leading provider of healthcare laundry products from patient gowns and linen to scrubs and nurses' uniforms in Puerto Rico, is committed to helping their clientele with this challenge. For example, their Triple BioShield Protection process has been specifically designed to assist with infection prevention through steps like sanitization that exceeds regulatory standards, a protective coating to safeguard products, and plastic barriers to protect items during delivery. All of this, of course, goes hand-in-hand with the high-quality of all of ImageFIRST Puerto Rico's services that aim to help keep patients healthier and happier.

Anyone looking for superior quality in their patient gowns, linen, uniforms and nurse scrubs in Puerto Rico is welcome to either visit the ImageFIRST Puerto Rico website or to contact the company directly by calling 1-800-932-7472.
