clinical uniforms

we got to wear navy scrubs and white lab coat with the school patch. no ******* hat, it's not the 70's for gosh sakes

We wear all white and lab coat is optional. Shoes have to be at least 80% white. No hats...yay! Hate the tidy whities though... Plan on burning them May 6, 2003 in a ritual....

Just curious for the person required to wear white undergarments...how the heck do they know if you are in compliance? Do they make you strip if they don't see visible panty lines? Weird!

WHITE, WHITE, WHITE, WHITE! That basically describes out uniform. No clogs, white underwear (you can tell under white uniforms), and the uniform itself....well, even peter pan wouldn't wear it!! One more year after this and IT WILL BE BURNED!!!

We are the only school that actually wears a nursing uniform (not scrubs like most schools). Talk about sticking out like a sore thumb!! I opt for a "consultation" jacket. Many pockets and very comfortable also.

Where I went to school, they were three programs. My school wore all white including undergarments (most white uniforms are pretty see through). One of the schools was a private Christian BSN program, they wore lite blue dresses with the nursing cap. The students hated them.

we have to wear all white white pants, white shirt, white shoes, and white lab coat. and we can't wear scrub tops because the head of the nursing dept. at my school thinks they're too low cut, risque, and unprofessional. she's such a crack head, i swear.

I just found out that we wear a green polo short, white scrub pants (BAD for women, don't you think?!) and a white vest with our school patch on the chest. No hats. I'm sorry, Loubell.

Whoa, didn't mean to make that scary face. Sorry.

The fact that men don't have to wear them seems pretty sexist to me. Nursing has changed a lot over the years, along with the rest of the medical field. To me the hat exemplifies all the usual stereotypes about nurses just being there for TLC. What an awful way to make the white hat nurses stand out from the male nurses! This way it's almost like the men are above the women in hierarchy. I would definitely protest that!!!

No hats here White pants and a turquois blue shirt w/logo and scrub jackets - we all look very nice and I think we stand out as students

BTW - Are white thongs permisable? And how would they know...LOL
