Can an EMT or Paramedic wear scrubs while working on the ambulance with their badge?

Has anyone ever seen this or done this?
 
Lol. No. And most places don't wear badges. If a badge is optional, don't wear one you'll look like a tool.

Only time you'll be wearing scrubs is when you've been ****/squirted blood On one more times than you have extra uniforms. Which sadly happens esp in the cities. Scrubs are a sign of a very very bad day

Plus -- the 5.11 pants are awesome & much better suited for 'the field' as above poster said. Plus more pockets!
 
No

In fact there are some laws with regards to uniform. As a driver on scene, we needed to wear our jackets or a neon vest.

Though I know Cleveland Paramedics wear badges and kevlar vests; unfortunately this increases the chance of a mentally unstable person mistaking one for a cop.
