Nursing Scrubs Uniform
![]() |
Nurses truly don't get enough credit not only for the actual amount of work that they put in during their grueling 12 hour shifts, but they don't get recognition for the physical strain that their bodies go through. They have to walk the hard floors of the halls of hospitals; all of the back and forth in the hallways can equate to walking for miles every day. They have to lift patients from bed, and when they aren't walking, bending, or lifting, they have to either sit or stand at the nurse's station. All of this can put a tremendous amount of wear and tear on the lower body. To offset this, some might think that wearing support pantyhose under their nursing uniforms will be helpful for them. In theory, this might seem like a good idea. But there could be some disadvantages to this as well.
There are some pros for nurses wearing full support pantyhose under their nursing uniforms. First, wearing full support pantyhose will help give their back, hips, and legs some extra support. Standing on one's feet all day, and running up and down the hard floors wearing tight and sturdy nursing shoes can cause the legs to get swollen, and sore. Wearing full support pantyhose can help to ease the pain, and take off some of the burden. Another advantage of nurses wearing full support pantyhose underneath their nursing uniforms, is that because the pantyhose will be opaque, they offer a lining of sorts. nursing uniforms today tend to be very sheer cotton or polyester scrubs. Uniform scrubs tend to be as thin as a handkerchief. A lot of people might do things, like wear shorts underneath their nursing uniforms, so that no one can see through their scrubs. By wearing full support pantyhose, this adds a layer of protection, and modesty. If the nurse is struggling with issues, such as varicose veins, or other disorders, she might need the support. Wearing full support pantyhose underneath a nursing uniform can actually help her perform her job.
There are some minor disadvantages to wearing full support pantyhose underneath a nursing uniform however. One disadvantage is that they can be very hot! This would be especially a problem for anyone wearing a nursing uniform that is made out of polyester. These uniforms already trap in heat. If they are wearing a good nursing shoe, their feet might also become very hot and moist. This would make the nurse feel very uncomfortable, and hinder the nurse's ability to do their job, especially for a 12 hour shift. One more disadvantage could be that it would take longer for the nurse to get dressed. Full support pantyhose are stiff by design. There might be times when a nurse is needed immediately for emergency situations. If she has taken a restroom break for example, full support pantyhose under her nursing uniform would impede her speed. The last disadvantage could be that her feet might rub against the insides of a sturdy nursing shoe. This would bring about a whole other set of problems, such as corns. Also, full support hose under a nursing uniform might impede her mobility. Nurses need full mobility when lifting patients.
So the argument could be made on both sides that full support pantyhose worn with a nursing uniform could be an advantage for her health, but a disadvantage for comfort, and mobility.
