Question: Should you wear scrubs to the interview?

Example

Cheryl Thompson: “You should ask this question to the family or care manager before your interview.” 

Tierra Thornton: “You need to understand what kind of community you are going to.  Many people wear docker pants light in color as well as a nice polo shirt. No scrubs unless requested.“ 

Cheryl Thompson: “Some clients prefer you wear scrubs. Others don’t. Clients might not want to be seen in public with a caregiver. Obviously dressed as a nurse in scrubs. These clients want to feel independent and may prefer regular clothes.”
