Scrubs

Home » Healthcare Administration » Medical Uniforms » Scrubs

Overview: Scrubs are a basic part of the medical uniform, and are designed to be easy to wear and easy to clean. Most are poly-cotton blends and not very absorbent, although some surgical scrubs are all-cotton.

Workwear and office type scrubs come in a variety of colors, cuts and styles, with gender- and workplace-specific designs, whereas surgical scrubs are usually offered in an eye-friendly green, with variations of blue and white.

Scrub pants are either elastic waist or drawstring style, with tops offering a comfortable v-neck opening. Most scrubs are also short-sleeved, allowing for a good range of motion and comfort when working. Scrub tops and bottoms may have pockets for keeping certain items handy. Some scrub tops button to close, others are pulled over the head.

Popular brands of scrubs include: Dickies Scrubs, Landau Scrubs, Urbane Scrubs, and Baby Phat Scrubs.


Prices: Depending on the type of scrubs desired and even how many top and bottom sets are bought at the same time, scrubs can range from $5.00 up to $25.00 per set, depending on the market and the retail venue.
