Smile Scrubs or Uniform?

i am a New Zealand student nurse. Currently, the nurses at the hospital that i study with are wearing uniform (white top and green skirt)-in the wards and blue scrubs in theatre and emergency. At the end of this year the whole hospital is moving from uniform to scrubs? i would like to know if any hospitals have scrubs or uniforms or both?

They are going to be different colours for different wards. I personally think that scrubs are more practical, easy to move in and if accidents happen you can just don a new pair of scrubs.

What are your thoughts?

Re: Scrubs or Uniform?

I find scrubs to be more comfortable and generally they are less expensive. I try to find them on sale. They are also more forgiving for when I'm overweight.
