COLTON>> Arrowhead Regional Medical Center has entered the sixth annual 2016 Medline Pink Glove Dance Video competition in support of breast cancer awareness and to raise money for charity. Hundreds of employees, as well as cancer survivors, are collaborating to create a video with the theme of running a race and passing the baton – where the baton represents different things in the fight against breast cancer such as "Team," "Friends," "Family," "Support" and "Hope." The competition has nationally united healthcare professionals, survivors, patients and communities to honor those who have been affected by the disease and to raise money for a cure. Videos are submitted to Medline, a medical supply company that makes the pink gloves worn by participants in the videos. Filming at ARMC began July 5 and will continue on July 18-19 from 12 p.m. to 4 p.m. and July 20 from 12 p.m. to 2 p.m. The public is invited to vote on all videos submitted from facilities nationwide, from Sept. 12 – 23. The winning videos will be awarded a donation to a charity of the winning team’s choice that supports breast cancer awareness and/or research. In 2009, Medline Industries, Inc. made the decision to change exam gloves from green to pink. Medline has donated more than $500,000 – in part from the sales of the pink gloves – to the National Breast Cancer Foundation for funding of mammograms for women who can not afford them. ARMC is a located on a 70-acre campus in Colton and is a designated Level II trauma center.
