hey all..
My program is now pushing a professional dress code while in the ER. Im looking for anyone who may have articles/information proving that this is an unsafe practice (they tell you the hospitals have to wash the scrubs b/c it is more sanitary than your washers/dryers, but theyre willing to not only let us expose/ruin our professional attire to body fluids, etc., but then its ok for us to wash them normally with other clothes, then wear them back in the hospital?) Does anyone have evidence? Ive seen an article addressing it, but I cant seem to locate it now. Thanks for your help!
