random question.. how do you deal with the cold?

After graduating nursing school, I worked as a nurse circulator in the OR. I used to wear the thin long johns under my scrubs which look like cotton shirts..Underamor also has apparel that you can wear under scrubs.

The good thing is that you can always dress for cold temps...just dress in layers...If it's hot (like it is in my ICU...always about 75-78 degrees) there's not much you can do...so hot natured people (like me) just have to suffer. I sweat like I'm in a sauna, every day that I work.

I have observed a few surgeries done by burn docs, and they keep the temp of the Burn OR suites at about 90 degrees (because burn victims cannot regulate their temp, without their skin)...so, you could consider doing anesthesia for surgeries on burn patients. Also, I know that you were just kidding, but you can't catch a cold from being subjected to cold temperatures...colds are caused by bacteria or viruses.
