PACU Dress Code

by Charity

What type of scrubs/uniforms do you wear in PACU? Hospital issued or personal? Are you physically attached to your OR, or separate. What type of PACU is it? We are looking at our dress codes, but can find little in the literature.

We wear whatever we want. We're attached at the end of the OR hall way that is separated by two automatic doors.

We are allowed to wear either our own scrubs or the ceil blue surgical suite scrubs. We too are attached to our OR. We mostly wear the blue scrubs though.
