There was another thread on this somewhere that got pretty heated. My personal opinion is this: If you feel more 'professional' in a dress, by all means wear it. As for me, I'll stick to scrubs. I'd rather not have any doubt in my mind that not only will I be comfortable, but everything will stay covered up, no matter how many times I bend over, or squat down, or if I should fall, whatever... My vote is scrubs.. but, to each his own..
professional what? Does she infer that men are not professional since they don't wear dresses? Being well groomed and ACTING professional carry more weight with me. But then, I hate pantyhose. Dresses infer TO ME that this person does not intend to get down and dirty if the situation demands.
it has nothing to do with professionalism but rather a preference for personal style----speaking for myself. even though i've always worn scrubs, whenever i see a nurse where one of those scrub dresses, the ones that go to mid-calf, i just love them. and trust me, i get down, up and all around dirty.

Hi
I sometimes work in a pretty good unit of co-workers and the question came up from another young nurse that she'd prefer to wear dresses again instead of pants stated it looked more professional, religion didn't play a purpose in this opinion this was just her opinion so how do you all feel? Me, myself I think both are fine because you can look just as professional in pants.:)
