first day of class...??

Nope. Scrubs are for the hospital; we aren't allowed to wear them to (RN) classes.

if you're talking about CNA classes, i wore scrubs everyday even if we weren't on the floor. but i guess it might depend on where you're taking your classes. check with the facility. i didn't have to wear a certain color...we could wear prints. so better to be safe than sorry i guess. good luck! i just got certified in ohio and its an amazing feeling!!!

It depends on the program. The CNA program I went through we didn't have to wear uniforms, but for my RN program whenever I have lab or validations I have to be in uniform. Their thought is if you are thinking like a nurse you should be dressing like a nurse.

Its been eons since I was in CNA classes but I remember wearing all white, head to toe, up to and including white stockings if you wore a skirt or dress. That "uniform" was worn the whole time, both classroom and on the floor. I trained in the facility I was going to work at. We would learn a skill/procedure in class, then go to the floor and do it.

i just recently graduated LPN school and scrubs were the uniform for classroom. Any color, any pattern, as long as they weren't capris. Shoes for classroom could be any kind, as long as they weren't heels or sandels.

Attire for clinicals were school issued scrubs and you had to have white shoes on, no open toes or open back (clogs)

I had to wear a white uniform all the time in the classroom & clinicals with green aprons.

We wore scrubs throughout the entire class. Our scrubs could be any color and we got quite creative about it. Most people went to great lengths and got really nice colorful scrubs with pretty print tops.

We were a very pretty class! :nuke:

We had no uniform until we did clinicals. But as others have pointed out, the instructor can set the rules.

yea thats normal, my class will require me to wear them day 1, it makes sense in the fact that you will be doing hands on clinical s all the time. For rn's its not, wearing the uniform for an RN is a priveledge that has to be earned.
