Everyone is different. We all have our own style, taste, likes and dislikes. When it comes down to choosing your scrub uniform color though, what are some things to consider in terms of practicality?
Work Environment:
Your workforce environment will play an integral role in the practicality of the color of your uniforms. If you are an emergency room nurse or doctor where you will constantly be getting dirty a dark navy or black will be the most practical way to go. However, if you are a dentist or a physical therapist you might consider a more calming color, which brings me to my next point – Color Meaning.
Color Meaning:
The most popular colors in the medical field are the blues family. Ever wondered why? Since every color portrays a deeper meaning. Blue is known for trustworthiness and its cool and calming nature. In a medical setting, where fear lingers in every corner, to relax your patients is a big thing. You will therefore find many doctors and nurses in ceil blue uniforms. If you work in a nursing home you might want to consider wearing rather greens which represent, nature and calmness, security, and stability. This is gearing to the vital need of the older aged people who have gone through life. Giving them calmness is giving them everything.
Distractions:
Prints are super practical in a pediatric setting! With young kids, many times distraction works best to be able to check and treat them! In addition, the children will adore and feel more comfortable when they spot their favorite character on your scrub top. Baby’s love bold colors in all kind of geometrical patterns, so go for it. The print camouflages any dirt or spit up that ends up on your uniform shirt. Therefor bold prints, the more colorful, the better, is the way to go.
To conclude, there is no one most practical color for scrubs. Rather your work environment, and needs of your patients, will be the determining factor for the best scrub uniform color.
