Keep Scrubs in Operating Theatres

Additional Information

Scrubs are seen everywhere these days: in wards,in the street and on commuting links.They pose a risk of infection where ever they go.
Hospital staff are now identical to each other; be it porters,doctors or nurses. Recognizing help is long gone.
I call upon the Ministry of Health to create guidelines:

-For scrubs to be kept in a sterile theatre rather in open contact with germs and super bugs like MRSA.

-Strict rules keeping scrubs from leaving hospital ground and in contact with greater public.

-Nurses to have clearly identifiable outfits showing rank.They should be proud of their profession and not hide themselves in scrubs.

-Doctors to wear white coats to show clearly the experienced professorial.

-Porters to wear brown warehouse coats,this lets nurses and doctors find orderlies quickly for fast ward movement.

-Cleaners and Caterers be issued with tabards and shirt to replace scrubs.This prevents confusion for patients.
