In FL & GA most RNs now wear royal blue. Is that the case everywhere?

Navy blue top with hosptial logo and RN on it matched with either white or nave bottoms for my hospital. The other local hosptials seem to have either a navy or a royal blue for RNs.

Royal blue at my hospital, navy at the other 2 major hospitals in my city.
Aides wear ceil blue, RT wears black. Green for surgery obviously (MDs & RNs). That's the extent of our color coordinating. I've seen someone wearing pink a few times but I can't figure out where she works.

I've had to wear khaki, wine, any color, now navy. I prefer navy. Khaki was blah color for me. Most places now are going to the Royal blue. I still like the navy.

Royal blue or white in our big facility. No prints unless you work in the children's hospital (which I do) so we get some rockin' tops.
Oh, and as our children's hospital's namesake is a professional football player/ superstar - we are allowed #18 jerseys on game day. (Think 'laser-rocket arm' /Papa John's / every other commercial known to man /namesake and his QB brother rapping for Direct TV - you get the idea!)
How cool about the jerseys!! I had no idea he had a namesake hospital.
Yup- and despite him moving to Denver- he continues to be a personal and financial presence in our facility. Good guy he is!

I work in a large multi-specialty clinic and each department sets it's own dress code. We wear navy, steel gray or white bottoms and tops are flexible. They prefer that we wear a scrub jacket or vest and most staff wear a solid T shirt underneath. I'm a traditional type of gal and wear a traditional scrub pant and top 95% of the time.
Our reception wears street clothes, but most departments allow reception to wear scrubs, like clinical staff
