So Cal Nurses!

[llcooljunr]

Hey, where do you guys buy ur scrubs at? I bought some dickies scrubs from some place in Ontario Mills for 25 bucks for each top and bottom. Are there anyother places that might sell them cheaper? Around the West Covina or Pomona area? Any other brands you guys recommend? I heard the ones they sell at Walmarttear easily.

 

[flyingemu05]

costco sells scrubs now, i dont know how much though. im pretty sure it comes as a set top and bottom though.

 

[sha77er s7ar i]

get em at the fashion district in downtown LA. i bought some dickies scrubs for like $7 top and bottom. and yes, theyre real.

you might also wanna ask where the other RNs get theirs because they usually do it as a side job to hook up the hospital with scrubs as well. the old filipinoRNs know whats up, ask em if youre cool with em.

 

[llcooljunr]

Thanks for the replies guys.
I checked out the costco website, and they were showing up for $40 for top and bottom, so it was still a little pricey.
I'll try and check out the fashion district. $7 for dickies is pretty good...is that for the men's line or for their unisex line?

Freakin sucks how it's so hard to find scrubs for guys. You wear the same $$#+ all through nursing school, and they say u can wear anything afterwards...But when u look, most of the scrubs out there are too fruity or designed to show off ur figure. My last resort was taking a set of scrubs and sending them tothe philippines and have my cousin find someone to make me some over there for like 10 bucks. I did that with my school uniform, but they sent me back auniform with the shiny polyester that they use over their for their uniforms.

 

[flyingemu05]

lol @ the shiny polyester, damn i didnt know the scrubs at costco were $40...i coulda sworn the sign said like $20 or something when i was there. ohh well ithink the garment district would be the best bet. maybe i should look for a place with cheap scrubs now so i wont have that problem when im done with school.

[Los Angeles]

I'm just talking about overall clinical rotations, I came from a nursing school in orange county and had about 4 - then I transferred to concorde san berdonow I've been to 3 more.

Exaggerated on the 10 tho

Sup fellow NT nurses. Where yall working at?

Fresh graduate. I heard to stay away from SNFs b/c you won't learn anything there. I'm looking at the OR in the future, so is the Med/Surg floor theplace to start?

I think u can get into OR as a new grad, you just gotta find a hospital that has openings there, and are allowing new grads to work there. I graduatedJune 2007, so I'm pretty new as well. My hospital wants at least 1 year experience to work their critical care units, so I'm starting in DOU. It's almost like Med/Surg, plus I get ACLS training as well.

if living in the long beach area, there's a scrubs store in bixby knolls.

yup, youre going to go thru a probationary period on the floors and from then you just have to be persistent and apply within the hospital. but moreeducation = better chance to move where you want, from my experience.

ive done rt clinicals at pomona valley and sunset kaiser. i work at anaheim memorial right now. i want to work in the NICU...

you could get acls free from flex ed in chino hills. i think you have to work at a hospital or in a program at an accredited school...look into it for moredetails and schedules.

 

[peep tha sneaks]

Good looking out.
