i will be starting to do the 2 year RN program and i was just wondering…
Where I went to school (a community college), RNs, LPNs, and CNAs only wore uniforms to clinicals. You might also wear them for graduation. I do know of a private school where uniform scrubs were worn for class every day. So I guess it just depends on the school.
I'm a student nurse, and a male. I was just wondering if any experienced male nurses knew what the best magazines to order would be, or any great websites to find scrubs and equipment? Thanks for your answers. I am very excited to actually be able to practice as a nurse and I haven't had much luck finding men's scrubs/clogs… Help!
I don't know if it's the best, but try http://allheart.com/
Google "nursing scrubs" and you'll find a bunch.
Have you ever noticed this? I was just wondering what the deal was! Thanks!
So they can access their pant pockets.
Please indicate directions and experiences. I am going to DIsney and I want also to buy my nurse uniforms because I recently graduate.
I am not going to disney in uniforms. This is my vacation. I only want to shop for my uniforms in one day, pkease indicate stores with variety and cheap prices.

I have to buy medical scrubs for school but i cant find any anywhere. I been to the mall and they dont even have them. & went to 3 other stores and either. does anybody know any stores, or websites.That would help a lot.
Wal-Mart sells scrubs.
As the first answer says scrubs are what doctors and nurses wear in the operating theatre. I guess they are called that as both are required to 'scrub' themselves clean before entering the theatre to prevent disease and contamination.

I NEED A ROYAL OR NAVY BLUE LAB COAT. DOES ANYONE KNOW WHERE TO FIND ONE . I HAVE SEARCHED THE UNIFORM STORES ON-LINE AND IN THE CITY(DETROIT). I NEED IT BY DEC.5th. I'M GOING BACK TO SCHOOL TO GET MY COSMETOLOGY/INSTRUCTORS LICENSE AND ONE OF REQUIREMENTS IS THAT I HAVE THIS PARTICULAR ITEM.
Why not get in touch with someone from the school you are going to be going to and ask them where the best place is to find one. I am sure there is somewhere in your area you can go to since the school requires you have one.
Good luck and be careful ordering things on line. You really need to try a coat on to make sure you get the right size. Those things tend to vary in size depending on the manufacture
I remember as a kid I really wanted to be a nurse because I thought the uniforms were awesome. Now nurses all seem to wear "scrubs." These look like pajamas- very unattractive.
According to studies made, by changing the colors of the doctors and nurses uniforms to scrubs; it helps to allay the patients' anxieties re hospitals. The reasoning was that hospitals were associated with white ; pain; illnesses and death. . That's why even the curtains in most hospitals are in colors now.. Besides, the splatter of blood is easily visible in white. Whites also indicate sterility and are quite conservative. Scrubs are more practical, easy to maintain; do not need ironing and are cost effective.as more durable. Pretty colors can bring happinesss. and an upbeat attitude among the patients.
A lot of people have problems with white uniforms because nurses deal with bodily fluids all day and their uniforms get soiled. It is nearly impossible to keep them clean. The white uniform also has the angel image problem. It harks back to the time when nurses were thought of as spiritual characters who provide emotional comfort, not professionals who save lives.
When you are perceived as an angel, people don't have a problem asking you to work 15-hour shifts without a break.
Potential drawback on this:
In a lot of hospitals, nurses are being replaced with technicians to save money. Some hospitals require everyone to wear generic scrubs and forbid nurses to identify themselves as registered nurses.If they did, the patients and families would know just how few nurses there are on staff.
White uniforms do have the advantage of being distinctive, and obviously they would help patients identify nurses, given the profession's traditional association with the color. Moreover, some may see white as preferable to what the article describes as "pajamalike scrubs splattered with colorful flowers, images of SpongeBob SquarePants or candy canes," which may encourage people to regard nurses as something other than serious professionals. So the white uniforms can enhance or restore professionalism to this field.; however, it can prevent individual expression. Some scrubs are quite attractive and if you have an unflattering figure, it can hide a lot. They come in pretty standard sizes of Large- Medium and Small and are quite inexpensive. .White uniforms are much more expensive.
Nursing uniforms in colors or scrubs can actually be a factor in short-staffing and the shortage. It can improve the morale among nurses. Thus, the improved image of nurses makes for an increase in numbers of potential nurses. .
