Disposable Scrubs As Pyjamas?

[hc4361]

These scrubs are very cheap and I wonder if they would be suitable as pyjamas for the incontinent bed bound or hospital patients to save on laundering.

Please provide a link so that I can appreciate what it is that you have in mind.

I presume you mean this type of thing?

I think the problem could be that if a patient were to wander off through the hospital in their scrubs/pyjamas, they could be mistaken for staff members.

That's the thing exactly.

Good point, 2sp. I think there is a demand for good quality disposable pyjamas that are cheap but can't find any

When I was a buyer for the local Health Board, we did buy in pyjamas and night dresses for patients. As they were bought in bulk and usually on a National Contract they did work out quite cheap.

I have a plain pair of green pyjamas that look very similar to scrubs, if ever I go into hospital I have to remember not to take them with me

@Daffy6543...Take your green pjs with you and wear them. Drift into other wards and talk to folk. From my experience of some consultants, I am sure that you will be able to offer as good advice as the supposed experts do. Very rarely have the specialists experienced, personally, what the patient has suffered.
