8. Lab Coat or No

   Buckaroo93 posted a topic in LTC Directors

   I've recently started the next step of my career as the Health and Wellness Director (DON) at an AL/ALH community. Would it be appropriate to wear a white lab coat (over business casual attire) while walking among the staff? I think it gives an air o...
