Tattoos in Nursing President Post

Since body art has become so fashionable in the past few years, new workplace Dress Code regulations are springing up to address the practice, with the goal of promoting and protecting the professional appearance of nurses. Some hospitals and other facilities have strict policies no regarding visible tattoos and piercings, some requiring that they be covered by bandages. Other facilities allow tattoos and piercings to be visible as long as they aren't "offensive".

Has your facility instituted a tattoo and piercing policy? How has that affected you and your co-workers? Do you believe that these policies will impact your patients?

While we're on the subject, we just thought we'd remind you of the great "tattoo" prints you can choose for your Sassy Scrubs. These unique fabrics can be chosen in all of our great Sassy Scrub garments - from surgical caps, to medical scrub tops, to jackets! So have a little fun, with great "tattoo" scrubs.
