Subject: Visible name and role caps: a small theatre pilot worth a look Hi, I came across a programme from Medicus Caps, a Sheffield manufacturer of reusable scrub caps, that pilots embroidered name-and-role caps with a single theatre team of 8 to 10 people for four weeks. Published studies suggest visible names and roles help colleagues recognise one another and are associated with better perceived communication. The pilot measures staff-reported identification and communication before and after, and the department gets a short team-level summary at the end. There is no commitment to a wider rollout, and reusable cap use would be subject to our local infection prevention and theatre attire policies. Details and the application are here: https://medicuscaps.com/es/pages/theatre-communication Would you be open to applying on behalf of our team? Thanks, [Your name]
