Scope It Out

Here's a fun way to bring some personality and color to your boring everyday uniform. Just take whatever stethoscope you use and buy a funky color electrical tape. Tape the stethoscope making it all one color or striping it. Colors are in style especially now during the summer and if you work in pediatrics, children love it. Just another way to keep things fresh and perhaps even ease the connection between you and your patients.

Even though I spend most of my life wearing a pony tail, nursing scrubs, and a digital 80's style watch...I still appreciate fashion-especially when it's discussed with humor. Check out this amazing blog about man repelling clothing. I've never read anything so hilarious! Hope enjoy it. www.manrepeller.com

Show Me That Anatomy

What ever happened to the sexy nurse in the itty-bitty uniform, with a slightly opened zipper, and white tights...If your thinking Halloween costume, think again. There's no reason a nurse can't look great and feel great, while still being dressed for work. Ok, so maybe not exactly a white mini dress and fish nets, but come on, there has to be a way to be in uniform but still stick out. There are plenty of scrub companies that design great fitting scrubs that show off your beautiful curves while still adhering to dress code and comfort requirements. As a nurse in Manhattan, I refuse to compromise the way I look in and out of the hospital, besides I'm still living in my Grey's Anatomy fantasy and waiting for my McDreamy...
