for school/clinicals?

Reading the buying scrubs thread and thinking about all white... just curious if white is the norm for most schools, or if any others have a little more color! LOL :)

All white. :( And I'm so sick of all white I could SCREAM!! I'm so burning these suckers in December. We did get to wear any color top we wanted during peds rotation so we wouldn't "scare the kids".

LOL!! We didn't even get a break during our peds rotation. We did scare the kids! They cried and ran from us. But we also scared the psych patients, too. They said that we reminded them of the "old nurses" that used to carry people off the the crazy house! He he :)

We have to wear either Hunter Green or White Scrub tops or a green or white polo shirt and hunter green pants We do get to pick whatever style we want (no cargo pants or cuffed pants) we can have a lab coat or scrub jacket and/or a vest in Hunter or White have school patches to sew on sleeves They do somtimes let the class pick a print if they can agree on one haven't done this for 2 years cause ADN and LPN classes could not agree I am sure I will be totally sick of this by the end of school and will never wear hunter again!!! Sure glad it is not all white or the bib things some of you have to wear Sorry !!!

White, white, white and white. White top, white pants, white shoes, and white lab coat. :stone

Ours are a royal blue scrub top and jacket with school logo embroidered in white, and white scrub pants. Shoes have to be all white.

Our school has specific uniforms (They are really ugly and very 70s). They are a zip up top with puffy short sleeves and three buttons on each side in the front. The pants are elastic waist (that stretch out and fall down after just a few clinicals. Our shoes must be "nursing" shoes and not look like sneakers in any way, shape, or form. I can't wait to graduate so that I can give my uniform to another unsuspecting nursing student coming up behind me!

:eek:

The mens uniforms are also white and make them look like a dentist.

our uniforms are solid white with red piping. They are so ugly and uncomfortable. The nursing teacher said they are going to a more modern and cheaper scrub for the next classes. Our uniforms for 1 set was $95.00. They have a buttoned on bid on the front and zip all the way up the back. We look like we raided the nursing homes closets. I will be excited when we graduate and we can wear scrubs. I feel that a nurse needs to be comfortable when working with a patient and our uniforms are defintly not made for comfort. They have had the same uniform for way to many years. Sorry, had to vent on this subject.

Hi camkib!

Not only do I recognize the gentleman in the pic, I also recognize your school logo because I use to be a clinical instructor for CNA students at that college years ago. :nurse:

I wish you the best in nursing! :balloons:
