I wear scrubs....whatever color(s) I like. They're just more comfortable and easy to wear...no worrying about hose, dress shoes, made up face or hair. This way I throw on cute scrubs, put my hair in a ponytail, wear comfy sneakers and I'm good to go! Especially nice since our facility takes up an entire city block and I'm on the run all day.

PS....I dislike wearing white, too.....most of the residents like the colors and comment on our "cute" outfits.

[quote=achot chavi;3431521]Are you kidding? one of the reasons some of my nurses became nurses was so that they wouldn't have to worry about what they wear to work.

Seems like an odd reason to become a nurse...

Business casual. Khaki pants or slacks, and a nice top. And clean, white comfortable sneakers, because you always have to be prepared to RUN!

Scrubs,comfortable shoes, a casual comfy lab coat and a name badge. All whites are too "institutional" looking. Our residents like the colors and they say that they feel more comfortable, not just a room number....

Default Re: What do you wear?
I wear scrubs because they are comfortable, easy to pick out in the morning, and because I often step in and assist the CNAs when I see help is needed. I am the only MDS coordinator in a 109 bed facility, which is bad because I am always trying to catch up with the assessments -- but good because I run my own office and wear/do as I please.
