Scrubs, Scrubs. Scrubs :)

Hi all, well I start CNA classes at the end of this month!! YEA! and I wanted to ask a question. Might sound silly but , Do you wear clothing under your scrubs? I see individuals wearing shirts but what do you wear under your pants.. Just wondering. I know stupid question but thought I'd ask.

boy shorts are VERY comfy. ANd not that thick and somewhat conceals the bootay. I will add this to my list of things to try. Thanks!

That's the only underwear I wear to work, and it's the only place I can stand wearing them. LOVE these things under scrubs.

I'm an RN, but I thought I'd chime in here. In summer I wear one of those little camisoles - the spandexy ones - under my scrub top. Most of the scrubs are v-necks - and when you bend over a patient - well, I'm not into giving out free shows.

In winter I usually wear a tee shirt under my scrubs - but they keep the air on the unit at sub-zero levels (even the post-menopausal ones among us get cold, so that should tell you something!) all year round and it seems worse in the winter (we're on the ninth floor).

But I would recommend wearing SOMETHING underneath - even if it's only a sports bra instead of a regular one, because you can ses straight down those tops whenever you bend over.

Thanks!! I wouldn't want to give a peep show at all. LOL

I wear a tank top under my scrub top. Just underwear under the pants. I bring a warm-up jacket to wear in case I get cold, but I usually get hot and sweaty running around all night, I only need it when I'm sitting at the desk charting.

I did my clinicals in the winter, so yes, I wore clothes underneath. But I did regret it once I started moving around!!! I also enjoyed the convenience of being able to pull my scrubs off and put them in a bag before I went home, but that's because I'm hardcore germaphobe.
