Nurses Uniform/Gear

I work at a company that requires RN and LPNs wear navy blue scrubs. Scrubs are nice, comfortable and look like pajamas. I would like to find navy scrubs with a collar, I think the collar looks more professional. The only ones I have found come in white. Anyone have any suggestions? I saw some "Johnny collar" scrubs but they do not have them in navy.

Thanks!

Rather than a collar, I would go for a well fitted, crisp/ tailored look.

Today's scrubs come in a variety of looks that can look neat and well put together. I always launder my scrubs at home and send them to the cleaners for an extra starch heavy press with creases. Clean professional shoes, if leather or patten leather nursing shoes shine them to a buff so you can see yourself in them, if sneakers make sure they are squeaky clean with bright strings.

Neat professional hair, pulled back or put up very neatly and well taken care of. Neat clean nails with moisturized hands (no cracked cuticles and chapped rough hands).

In my humble opinion, it's the over all appearance and not just one aspect like a collar that paints a professional appearance. Being on time, and showing a professional attitude and work ethic at work all count. No need to look like you just rolled out of bed with PJ's on while wearing scrubs. It's the whole picture. Hope this helps.:sarcastic:
