Expect everything that gets bought from the hospital to be much more expensive than when bought outside though it shouldn’t be to the point of being ridiculous. Maybe the scrubs are the latest in fashion and can be worn in just about any occasion. Seriously, scrubs offer a lot of benefits to nurses beyond just making it easy for the patients to identify them. Scrubs help the nurses identify contaminants and bodily fluids such as vomit, stool, urine, blood and other fluids or chemicals, are actually inexpensive to replace, can get cleaned using harsher chemicals and heat which makes them cleaner than regular clothes, and they offer lots of pocket space that makes it easier for nurses to carry their tools and equipment, aside from protecting personal clothing from being ruined.
