Tips to Choosing Work Appropriate Scrubs




Your work scrubs can be considered as your closest companion when you are working so it is best if they live up to your expectations, right? The smallest of details will play the most important of roles every single time. You will have to ensure that you cover all the bases when you purchase your work scrubs, for instance the styling of the sleeves, the patch pockets and even the side slits. Here are some other things to keep in mind:
Mock Wraps versus V-necks- Choosing between these two might be a little harder than you think. This choice is like choosing between wanting a stylish pair of work-wear without the “u-shape”, split neck, scoop neck or any other neck design. Without giving you confidence with that new look you can consider choosing a slimmer look with the mock wrap.
Raglan versus Set-In- You may think that it’s a little on the odd side to figure in the type of sleeves when picking the perfect type of scrubs but when it comes to certain perfectionists it can mean everything. So if you are one, make sure you pay close detail to this part.
Colored versus White- We all know that white is clean and it looks great on doctors but dirt is very attracted to it. Do you really want to go through all that attention to detail, all that cleaning, etc? Chances are, you don’t. So if you work in maternity, pediatrics or the ER… it is very advisable that you stay away from white.
A good pair of scrubs can mean the difference between comfort and discomfort for the course of a shift. So be sure you get what you want, especially as you’ll be spending a lot of time in them!
