IMAGE MAKEOVERS FOR THE HEALTHCARE INDUSTRY

PHOENIX, AZ – (Jan. 26, 2009) – Avidere, LLC, the premiere image consulting firm join together with Landau®, a leading healthcare uniform manufacturer, to provide image training for healthcare professionals. The powerful image training program will help healthcare facilities improve patient satisfaction, present a consistent professional image throughout the organization and inspire change and dress compliance with clinical and non-clinical uniformed employees. "An employee's image reflects the company's image. Every employee within each department is important to the overall professional image of the healthcare organization", states Roberta Hughes, CEO of Avidere, LLC. "Patients have a choice in the care provider that they choose. Often times the image of an employee can make the difference in whether a patient trusts the healthcare provider or not. If you don't take care of yourself, how can others trust that you will take care of them?" says Hughes. Filmed on location at a healthcare facility, The Power of Image™ Healthcare Uniform & Grooming DVD features a variety of healthcare positions and departments. The inspiring program features employee before and after images, patient interviews, and practical how-to image tips. Important image principles that help sustain the competency, safety, and cleanliness of the healthcare facility are thoroughly discussed in the training program, helping employees understand why image matters and increasing compliance to company image standards.

Image strategies including professional uniform fit, maintenance and overall uniform appearance are featured in the image training program. "Landau® fashion forward scrubs, lab coats and innovative medical shoes help demonstrate the look of a professional image." states Hughes. Grooming techniques including makeup, jewelry, nails, facial hair, tattoos and hairstyles are also addressed in The Power of Image™ Healthcare Uniform & Grooming DVD. "Grooming is one area where employees can express their individuality. Our healthcare image training program help employees practice professional grooming habits," says Hughes.

This exciting and innovative product will allow healthcare organizations of any size, unlimited image training from the convenience of their employee's desktop. An employee image reference guide, assessment tool and image mentoring scripts for management are also offered. "Our clients asked for an economical image training solution that would help improve their employee and company image. I believe we have met this challenge." says Hughes.
