Scrubs to tight? How do you tell someone?

Someone needed to say it.... :twocents:

Oh, the hazards of wearing low-rise scrubs.

AnalegnaRN · May 21, 2008

I had no idea that there were low rise scrubs that just seems like something that can go horribly wrong quickly:uhoh21:

If you aren't comfortable mentioning it... and I can clearly see that you aren't, and I don't blame you.... maybe you can just say something to the manager and then perhaps the manager can bring it up at a floor meeting or in a memo or Email or whatever, that "low risers" aren't allowed and persons not properly dressed will be sent home to change.

If their managers think this is an issue it is up to them to let them know. I'd butt out. No pun intended. lol

Visible Panty Lines: Ask them where they buy thier bikini cuts. :lol2:

No Panty Lines: Ask them how they can stand wearing a thong! :no:

But seriously, sounds like your manager needs to deal with this one.

we just had to have a hospital wide training about this, powerpoint presentation and all. Needs to be said, preferably by a well paid exec or HR person.

I think people that wear too-tight scrubs are probably fully aware of it.

There is that sector of people, that if they wear a "medium", they are going to wear a medium...and no matter how much weight they gain, they are still going to squeeze in a medium.

Stay away from this! Whether your point is valid or not, being male, they will want to know why you are noticing when you are supposed to be working. Perhaps ask your facility to institute a fashion police squad.

I agree. Tell your manager let them handle it. That keeps you out of it. If the manager doesn't do anything about it then let it go :nurse:
