Ours are called "my school name" blue, but I recently learned they are the Landau galaxy blue.

I really like the color! It's better than white, green or that really light blue.

Oh goodness! ALL brown?! That IS awful. I feel much better about white now! lol :bow:

Wow! I'm really surprised by how many of you have to wear all white uniforms.

For those that wear the white uniforms from head to toe, are you in a RN or BSN program???

ADN here in all white :(

For class days, khaki scrub pants with navy blue scrub tops (school name embroidered in white). For clinical days, white scrub pants, white socks (no bare leg showing when seated), white shoes, same navy tops as class days. Optional white lab coat with school name embroidered in blue--royal blue, not navy to match the scrub tops (??).

At the facility where I have clinicals this term, RNs and LPNs wear royal blue and/or white. It's nice to be able to find a nurse when you need one in a hurry. The downside is that sometimes non-nursing staff mistake US for nurses since we have white on! I had a phlebotomist asking me all kinds of questions about her daughter this morning, and I felt bad that I couldn't answer them...but then again, 'you should discuss that with her doctor' was probably the best thing to say, even if I did know what she was talking about.

White, head to toe.

landau's hunter green which has this funky cut pants. Still have to check if dickies or cherokee has the same color in better cut. The color is a very intense green, I don't like it but it's school colors and I guess it's better than white.

We wear our school color - it's a dark red that most companies call "wine". Wear it top and bottom with our school's name and "Nursing Student" in a gold color on the left breast. Just regular scrubs.

So glad we're not wearing white! I'd have to buy all new underwear! ;)

Navy blue. Enough said! :D

I guess I won't be complaining about my scrub colors anymore...

Navy blue pants and gold top with school emblem (really a yellow if you ask me). And an optional white lab coat.

All white! First day of clinical, I got prune juice all over it...never came out but I am not buying more and then paying 5 dollars for each new patch. :eek:

Oh, man. That sounds like something I would do. I am so accident prone. My first actual clinical week is the week of October 20th, so we'll see what happens that day. I am going to be covering myself with 100 napkins when I eat/drink. LOL Mine have to be all white, too. And I have to take my own and have them embroidered (which is $5 per shirt or lab jacket). :rolleyes:

We wear all white also, soo annoying..but for our psych rotation, we wear dark blue..way better...

My school deceived us at orientation. They said we would be getting a "lovely oyster and royal blue" combination

What did we get? BROWN AND NAVY BLUE! EW!
