Hi,
I just started my first job as a school nurse and was surprised to learn that we don't wear scrubs. Do you wear scrubs?

I don once in a while when I am feeling too lazy to put together a real outfit The nurse at our high school wears them every day. I only have scrub pants so wear them with a regular shirt. Th/Fr we have "casual day" where all staff can wear jeans so sometimes I will do scrub pants instead of jeans.

I wear a mix of scrubs and casual clothes. Mostly scrubs, though.

I wear scrubs everyday. I think it makes it easier to identify me as the nurse, and it makes it easy getting dressed in the morning.

Scrub top + colored t-shirt and cargo pants (extra pockets).

I wear scrub pants and either a medically related t-shirt (today I'm wearing a Carter blood donation shirt, for example) or a school related t-shirt. Sometimes I switch it up and actually wear the scrub top that goes with my pants, but that is getting fewer and fewer as my pregnant belly grows :) I was given the option to wear business casual when I started last fall, but chose the scrubs for the fact that they're easy and it let the students know who I was since I started after school started and I was new.

Always a scrub top, usually a nicer t-shirt on top with a cardigan/sweatshirt, sometimes a scrub top.

Yes, always scrubs. Jeans with school spirit shirts on Fridays. I try to dress up for the special days too - PJ day, Sports day, 80's day, ect.
