      I’m not sure about fancy, but I have to wear scrubs, a face mask and a hat when I’m working in the theatres (a bit like er or casualty).

      Most of the time its just a shirt and trousers (for the guys) but sometimes when we make radioactive drugs I have to wear a special suit, face mask, gloves and boots. Makes me look a bit like an astronaut! Other times I go to surgery and have to wear blue hospital scrubs

      Mostly I wear smart top/shirt and skirt/trousers, but when I’m attending theatre sessions I also have to put on the snazzy blue scrubs, it’s fun actually because it’s like you’re wearing your pyjamas at work!

      Currently I do not have to wear special clothes but in my previous job we had to wear really fancy bright orange/yellow lab coats with special goggles,gloves and shoes. This was to light us up as we used to work with radioactive material which was limited to specifically trained people.

      I wish I would have to that would make things even more funny here but no mostly people dress just normal in the department. At the moment we just stick to occasional dancing in the corridors (no joke). 🙂
