    I have no butt, big thighs, and a big chest… Any suggestions

    There were a lot of young/trendy fashions featured here. How about something for the older nurses? Also, I know I am not the only plus size nurse in the world. It would be useful to address the needs of women with plus size bodies. I certainly don’t want to be wearing low-rise pants, which would really look sloppy and wrong on an old mama like me, who has a kangaroo pouch!
    A lot of the uniform companies have gone to making shorter sleeves–practically no sleeves at all–and I have to go a size up just to find a scrub top that will fit my arms! It’s sooooo annoying!

    I wish they would not make everything so low cut! I cannot understand it and have written to a couple of companies about it. We need coverage while we are moving around. We are not models, just working girls!
