Nursing Uniforms and Breast Cancer Awareness

There are many events that are held to promote breast cancer awareness and raise funds for prevention, education, and treatment. The medical profession sees the results of the events more closely than many because they participate closely in the treatment, survival, and prevention of breast cancer. Nurses can show their support by participating in the events and contributing to the fundraising efforts of those they know. Nurses can also show their support by wearing pink nursing scrubs and cancer awareness accessories.

Some of the accessories that a nurse can wear with his or her scrubs include the following:

Keychain lariat
Clips on stethoscope
Pins in name badge or on uniform
Jewelry
Hair ties
Pens

Wearing nursing scrubs that are various shades of pink, on the days that local events take place. Some events like the Race for a Cure and the Susan G. Komen Walk are held annually so it is easy to plan to wear supportive scrubs and accessories. If you can’t find any cancer awareness print scrubs online or at a local uniform store, you can easily make your own scrubs using cancer awareness print material, which is easier to find. You can also take basic scrubs and use fabric stamps to stamp breast cancer awareness symbols like the pink ribbon, on the scrubs.

Some nurses wear their scrubs when participating in breast cancer awareness events and fundraisers because many breast cancer patients and their family only see nurses in the hospital during procedures and hospital stays. The events are a good way for both the breast cancer survivors and their family to see nurses outside of the hospital in a positive and uplifting environment. Some hospitals will have shirts printed up with the hospital and team name on them for employees to wear when they are participating in an event. This contributes to a positive image for the hospital. With printed team shirts, participants often still wear scrub pants because they are so comfortable.
