Are You a Scrub Hoarder?

Wearing scrubs every day can be nice since they are comfortable. But it can get a bit boring. We can try to change things up and put a little fashion into our day by buying the latest prints, styles, and colors.......oh...and sizes to fit our ever-changing body. Are you one of those who has a growing collection of scrubs? You just can't bring yourself to part with some of your favorites that you've "outgrown". Who knows... you may eventually fit back into those size 2's...or 4,6,8,10.......in your dreams anyway.

Done away with all my old scrubs.

One of the perks of working OR is not having to purchase/launder my own scrubs. However, I've learned to keep at least two sets in my locker for those days laundry is late stocking!

Nope. I have been delighting in getting rid of all the scrubs that no longer fit since I have lost weight. Down 2 sizes.

Nope; the only reason I own scrubs is because my school requires a certain color and patch. Otherwise I wear hospital scrubs exclusively.

I like that my hospital has designated RN scrubs with a logo. I work 3 shifts a week and have 4 sets. I'm good to go!
