Top 5 Worst Styles of Medical Scrubs


Medical scrubs can be fashionable, comfortable, and inexpensive. Unfortunately, they can also be quite unfashionable. It is wise to keep in mind the five main mistakes people make when it comes to medical scrubs. Because scrubs come in so many colors and styles, it’s easy to choose badly. It seems every major medical facility employs at least one worker who “didn’t get the memo” about scrubs fashion and etiquette. 

When it comes to stains, you need to tread very carefully. In the medical profession, permanent stains are considered bad business. Therefore, even if you know that that tiny red stain on your medical scrubs is from strawberry jam, it is best to toss the things if the stain won’t come out. Most scrubs are very easy to clean, and feature treated materials that do not stain easily. But every now and then, a permanent stain makes its way into our lives. When it does, do not delay trashing the scrubs.

Torn pockets are fine, if they are properly mended. The challenge here is knowing when to give up the ghost. Mending once is okay, but mending a second and third time makes your medical scrubs look terrible. 

The third and fourth medical scrubs disasters have to do with color and size. Too small is too bad. No one wants to see a person wearing scrubs that are on the tight side. Colors and wacky patterns can sometimes look awful, so avoid the really frightening hues and insane patterns. 

Last but not least, do not wear scrubs that are too revealing. Save the parade for Fourth of July, and keep the skin show at the beach. Medical scrubs are meant to be worn in a work environment, not a nightclub. Stick to proper sizing, current styles, and comfortable fabrics. That way, you will look great and get the job done.
