LET THE STAFF WEAR WHAT THEY WANT! 

UPDATE: CHS provided us with the following statement. 

STATEMENT:

· Canberra Health Services (CHS) recently reminded nursing and midwifery staff about existing uniform and work attire expectations; these have been in place for some time.

·CHS provides approved uniforms to ensure staff meet safety and infection‑prevention requirements and maintain a professional clinical environment. 

·While colourful or non‑CHS scrubs are not part of the standard uniform, they may still be worn where there is an approved local agreement in place.
