Appropriate attire for shadowing floor nurse position

[susanmary]

What do you feel is appropriate attire when nurses come to shadow you? Scrubs? "Interview" outfit? Casual clothes -- nice pants (no jeans), etc. with a lab coat? I've seen the whole spectrum -- but I'm thinking nice scrubs. Looking for your input.

Double post, sorry!

When I did jobshadowing at my current workplace before hiring on there, I was told by Human Resources to wear slacks and comfortable shoes, so I did. I only jobshadowed for four hours, then went home.

Wear what is recommended by those setting up the jobshadow experience for you because each place will be different.

I hope you all understood that. :imbar

My opinion: Dress like the job you are shadowing. Would look pretty conspicuous otherwise.
