MEDICAL SCRUBS IS A MUST IN THE HOSPITAL

I was doing my rounds in the medical ward yesterday. The medical ward is a place where patients with less serious illnesses are placed. It is a general policy of the hospital where I am a resident doctor, to wear medical scrub. The mens scrub uniforms are available in the supply room and we doctors must always wear our scrub to be identified by the nurses and medial staffs inside the hospital building.

When I was in the delivery room, I was wearing my pink scrub uniform, that is the official color inside the delivery room. When I am inside the conference room, I must wear my white scrub. Hospital policy must be followed. That is why when I leave the house I always make sure that I bring my hospital uniform. Its a good thing wearing the uniform because patients can easily recognize me, as a doctor from the nurses and the aides working inside the hospital.
