It all started in white gowns, flaring headdresses and more baggy clothing of the nuns who started nursing as profession during the early times. This time, nursing uniforms have eventually took the twist and diverted from the conventional. Officially though, nurse uniforms must be white and it is still acceptable anywhere in the world. This however does not restrict hospitals and practitioners to use any other clothes that are appropriate and necessary in performing their duties. Nowadays, scrubs have become an everyday wear of nurses and even doctors because of the benefits it give. Fashion scrubs in its plainest term may not exist or may be regarded as pure hospital jargon. This is because the hospital is far more different than any other offices and the professionals here do an absolutely poles apart jobs than those in white collars. In short then, fashion only applies to people or professionals who do less physical job. However, it is unfair to restrict the nurses with a specific type of dress without considering comfort in the performance of their duty. Thus, fashion scrubs is merely on the context of comfort in the workplace.
