Uniformity
Sunday, August 29th, 2010I happened to visit a hospital the other day. A friend of mine had to go in for a checkup and I offered to give her a ride. As you may imagine, I had to wait awhile for the checkup to be done and I happened into a conversation with one of the nurses. I had noticed that she had on nursing uniform scrubs that looked really nice. She also had on a scrub hat that was very colorful.
She told me about how every doctor and nurse had to purchase their own uniforms. She said that most of them use a site called blueskyscrubs.com that sold them. They had a wide variety of medical scrubs for both men and women. They were a quality product and everyone liked them. She also liked the fact that buying scrubs online was quick and easy. The prices were reasonable and the uniforms were delivered to her home.
Our conversation finally ended and I sat alone. While I did, I pondered the different uniforms and hats everyone was wearing. I saw how wearing uniforms made it easier to identify who was who. The colorful garb also made the hospital seem just a little bit friendlier. I guess it’s a good that uniforms are required for people like this.
