Hospital Cracks Down on 'Fun Scrubs'

Tamworth Base Hospital is limiting the use of "fun scrubs" worn by healthcare staff to maintain a professional image.

Nurses and midwives have been wearing these colorful garments in special care, maternity, and children's wards to bring cheer to patients since 2018.

"Fun scrubs started in 2018 at Tamworth hospital, and we've been allowed to wear them every day,"

A nurse, who wished to remain anonymous, stated that the fun scrubs have a positive impact on morale, particularly during times of short staffing and double shifts.
