Why OliveUs

I used to sew my formalwear and “fun outfits” in high school just awaiting the day I could be a nurse and make my own scrubs. As a new grad nurse, I used to get a rash along my neck where my stethoscope was placed so I designed this holder for myself. After graduating with my DNP, I realized I wasn’t the only medical professional who wanted better options. I founded this company to provide my community the accessibility, comfort, and innovative design I always wanted for myself.

Why a Stethoscope Holder?

  • 100% of the stethoscopes tested at a hospital facility have staph and other bacteria. After cleaning with hospital disinfecting wipes, 50% of stethoscopes still have detectable bacteria. Why would you want this touching your face, hair, and neck?
  • Having the stethoscope around the neck can be a choking hazard in the case of a temperamental patient.
  • The current neck placement does not align with proper body mechanics of the medical professional.
  • The inconvenient location makes it common for the instrument to get caught on objects around the room when wearing it around your neck.
  • Heat from a provider’s neck alters the texture and color, thus minimizing the effectiveness of the instrument.
