Can nurses wear skirts?

Published

Are female nurses allowed to wear skirts for religious beliefs?

Have you ever seen anyone out there do that?

Wow, what an interesting thread. I always though scrub dresses/skirts were old-fashioned and not even allowd anymore. I have never seen a nurse wear one. I am not a nurse (yet), so I have only seen nurses in hospitals. But after reading some of these posts, I did some google searches...some very cute scrub dresses out there! I think they look comfy, and professional. There are also tons of cute scrub pants made just for women, and a woman's shape. I personally hate unisex scrubs. But that is because I am 5"1 and petite...I swim in even the extra small sizes. I like scrubs that fit nicely, but aren't sexy or tight. Professional, but feminine...and yes, I beleive you can look feminine in pants.
