How do you like Wild West look?

Looking nice always makes us feel good, so I decided to settle for nursing fashion today.

The medical uniform industry pretty much have every option of nursing scrubs and lab coats that can be used by nurses and doctors alike for work everyday. They can match different pieces to look fashionable, or even achieve a style featured in a magazines and runways. One great idea is the Wild West look featured by the clothing line Ralph Lauren. Check out the Ralph Lauren Wild West look below.

Here’s a set of items you can try to achieve that Wild West look. A chocolate-colored lab coat, white scrub top, and a khaki scrub pants. Forget about the tassels at the sides of the pants because that would be odd in a hospital setting, but concentrate on the fun result of mixing colors and uniform styles. Imagine a nice look resulting from tucking the white Landau scrub top in the khaki flare leg Cherokee scrub pants. And when worn over with the chocolate colored lab coat, you get the Wild West look that easy. A metal belt buckle will not be necessary. To complete the Wild West look ala medical uniforms, wear a pair of black or matching brown nursing shoes. This look is in fashion for the whole year.

Healing Gardens Help Hospital Staff Deal with Stress

Healing gardens work not just for patients but also for the hospital staff. For one, a beautiful garden doesn’t simply feed to human nature’s penchant for scenic places, but helps with our physical, psychological and emotional well being. That’s the reason why most nurses and doctors would take off their nursing uniforms for a while for a vacation in places where the scenic views are magnificent. The beauty of nature takes away stress and energizes people. And when they come back to work, the vacationers normally glow with notable radiance. Significantly, healing gardens in hospitals also provide therapeutic effect to the stressed health care workers while at work.

There are varieties of healing gardens, each mainly designed for the needs of patients. Specialty hospitals and clinics that deal with specific groups of patients can have healing gardens particularly structured for their therapeutic needs and physical capabilities. The types of healing gardens include psychiatric hospital gardens, children’s gardens, nursing home gardens, Alzheimer’s Treatment gardens, hospice gardens, gardens for the visually impaired, meditation gardens, enabling gardens, sensory gardens, and gardens for horticultural therapy.
