- I guess I can walk around like this
and say, "Happy Hallo-" Ow!
Do people really wear this for Halloween?
(peppy instrumental music)
- I am a registered nurse.
- I am an oncology nurse.
- And I work in the emergency room.
- I work on (mumbles) unit and sometimes float to ICU.
- We are going to be trying on nursing Halloween costumes.
It's gonna be fun, it's gonna be exciting.
- I actually don't know how it's gonna be.
- What I wear everyday is usually very comfortable.
- Not sexy at all.
- I'm wanting to see the difference.
- So this outfit, where do I even begin?
- I don't know, my scrubs don't look like this.
There's nowhere to put stuff, I mean, this is flimsy,
it's see-through.
- Our male co-workers, I don't think they would
really wanna wear this everyday.
- They just remind me of pajamas.
- I'm diggin' it!
It's way more comfortable than what I'm used to.
I would wear these if I could.
- We do wear all sorts of colors, depending on the hospital,
and there are a lot of nurses that like pink.
- Let's just do something generic like blue or something.
- If I were to ever wear this in the hospital, and if I got
any bodily fluids on me, it would go straight through.
- This is an old thermometer, I'm not gonna, you know
how long it'll take to take someone's temperature in the ER?
- It's very comfortable and it's comparable
to what we normally wear.
- Yeah, it's definitely kind of accurate.
- Oh, this is a scrub nurse for surgery?
(laughing)
- So nurses stopped wearing dresses I don't know
how many decades ago.
- It just screams hospital, but diner. I'm confused.
- I guess if you're back in the 1950's, then I guess
it would be very appropriate.
- Well actually, there are some nurses,
I have seen a couple that still do wear these outfits.
I'm just kind of doing a double-take,
like where did you come from?
- I like it. I like the skirt.
- You get a little peek-a-boo shoot right there.
That is not professional.
- We're not at work to be cute,
especially in the emergency room.
Who makes these uniforms? I want to talk to them.
- I just feel kind of silly in it.
- This is a joke, it's not even a costume.
- Oh my gosh, I don't even know what to say about this.
- I like that it's form fitting, a little bit.
- More kind of like a fantasy I think.
- I don't have hearts on my uniform.
- This nurse would cause a heart-attack.
- I already get a lot of perverted patients. This, uh-uh.
- I don't really like it that much.
- Oh my god, if I showed up to work like this,
- they'll die on the floor laughing!
- I think it's both, silly and fun.
- It's complete trash to me.
- There's nothing really to say except I wouldn't wear them.
- Being a nurse and putting on all of these nursing costumes
insulted me, actually, as a nurse.
- I don't think they were that bad, I think I've seen worse.
- I mean, every profession, I guess you could slut it up.
- I'd be pro-sexy male nurse costumes.
I'm glad that our profession is on a costume rack,
that's kind of cool.
I would feel honored that they would want to be a nurse.
(laughs)
- No matter what they wore.
(playful piano music)
- It's just so sad, what's happening over there.
- Oh yeah, mmm-hmm.
(whoosh)
- You don't know the half of it.
