About Us

In today's healthcare marketplace, the responsibility of uniform purchases is more and more becoming the task of the employee. The Life Uniform Company caters to the needs of all healthcare employees in every retail channel available. Our retail stores can be a one-stop shopping option for all healthcare uniform, scrubs, nursing shoes, hosiery, and healthcare accessory needs. Our web site allows you 24 hour a day access to all of our products and fashions. Our goal is to make your experience with us a positive one, however you decide to shop.


Group Service

A Life Uniform store manager will personally visit your facility to coordinate your professional look in uniform apparel. This includes assistance in selecting a uniform dress code, organizing the fittings, and delivery of merchandise. Our managers are trained to service any size group at hospitals, nursing homes, private offices, clinics or schools. Show your patients that you care about your employees appearance as well as the quality service you provide. For more information, please contact your local Life Uniform store manager, or Melanie Beckman, Business Development Manager, at 314-824-2961 or by e-mail at mbeckman@lifeuniform.com.


Payroll Deduction

Life Uniform can arrange to offer Payroll Deduction at your facility. This will enable you to coordinate the appearance of your entire staff quickly and easily. As new employees are hired, they will also quickly comply with your dress code. When adding or changing uniform colors or prints, Payroll Deduction will make it a smooth transition. Under the Payroll Deduction agreement, Life Uniform supplies the voucher forms (in coordination with your Management staff) as well as the payroll stuffers promoting this employee benefit.

Life Uniform has developed proprietary software that automates the input of payroll deduction sale transactions into most payroll systems. The payroll deduction sale transactions are electronically captured by Life Uniform and copied to a PC software disc. Life Uniform coordinates with your Payroll Department to develop the necessary interface program to pass the payroll deduction sales data directly to your payroll system. This eliminates the time-consuming process of manually entering these payroll related transactions.

On-Site Scrub Sale

Your local Life Uniform store manager can come to your facility and set up a "temporary store" for the day. At regular intervals, we'll bring a customized assortment of uniforms, shoes and accessories to your employees. It's easy to arrange. We will provide the set-up, professional fittings, sales staff, and removal of merchandise after the event. Your employees benefit from easy, convenient shopping-before and after work. Payment can be made by cash, check, MasterCard, Visa American Express or payroll deduction (with prior approval). All you provide is an available space (i.e. cafeteria, conference room, nurse's lounge or hallway. For more information, please contact your local Life Uniform store manager, or Melanie Beckman, Business Development Manager, at 314-824-2961 or by e-mail at mbeckman@lifeuniform.com.


Permanent On-Premise Life Uniform Store

This option gives your employees the convenience of having a fully staffed Life Uniform where they work. Your hospital profits by receiving a percent of store sales on a monthly basis. Life Uniform will work with your Administration Department to find a suitable space, then provide all the promotional materials, inventory, personnel, fixtures and supplies. An on-premise store reduces the costs associated with ordering and handling individual purchases, as well as the inventory costs of re-ordering hospital provided uniforms. To take advantage of this great opportunity, contact Melanie Beckman, Business Development Manager, at 314-824-2961 or by e-mail at mbeckman@lifeuniform.com.
