Thank you MrChicagoRN! I found exactly the information I was looking for thru your link! As I said, there are some changes being implemented at our hospital in an effort to boost our excellence scores. I had heard from the librarian at our hospital that the book Hardwiring Excellence by Quint Studer was given to all nurse managers hired on. I was surprised this week to see my manager, who is always dressed very professionally, now wearing scrubs....If we are following the Studer Model I was curious to see where this new dress code initative was outlined. I had gone through the book and not found what I was looking for. I was just seeking out some help researching the topic. I thought this was a forum to ask for help and offer help in return, please be respectful of those who are trying to educate themselves.
