Changing Trends in Healthcare
Women Assuming an Ever Increasing Role in Healthcare
Changes in healthcare are continuing in ways that many are unaware of. One of the most significant of these emerging trends is the increasing number of women providing clinical care in settings varying from Emergency Rooms to Outpatient Clinics to Surgical Centers. In 2006-2007, women received 49.1% of the MDs awarded, the largest proportion of any national medical school graduating class in history. That trend is continuing with women now dominating several specialties that were once almost the exclusive domain of men. In addition, Physician Assistants (PAs) and Nurse Practitioners (NPs), the majority of which are women, are two of the fastest growing sectors within the medical profession.
This increase in the number of women providing clinical care to patients has recently been recognized by some medical uniform suppliers.
Bulletin: Male and Female Doctors Do Not Have the Same Shape!
Traditionally, the style of lab coats and scrubs worn by clinicians - those licensed to write prescriptions such as MDs, PAs, and NPs - have helped to define their position within the medical hierarchy. This was useful especially in a hospital setting where professionals with many different levels of training and authority work alongside each other. For example, the scrubs worn by clinicians, as opposed to those worn by nurses, were a style known as “unisex.” That term was meant to suggest that the same lab coat or set of scrubs could be worn interchangeably between men and women. Of course, men’s and women’s bodies are fundamentally different in shape. Yet the unisex styling did make things a lot simpler for those who supplied and inventoried the uniforms. The so called unisex style was adequate for men’s bodies, and during a period when men overwhelmingly dominated the field of clinical medicine, the need for clinician lab coats and scrubs for women was apparently deemed insufficient to warrant a separate design.
But with the proportion of female clinicians increasing so significantly, uniform trends are changing.
Uniform Industry Beginning To Take Note
A few uniform suppliers have introduced lab coat and scrubs for female clinicians that maintain elements of the traditional unisex design, but are tailored specifically for women. Instead of using poor quality fabrics that are unpleasant against the skin and pill after a few washings, the best of these clinician style lab coats and scrubs are made of beautiful fabrics that are soft to the touch and vastly superior in durability. Utilizing the latest high-tech fibers and treatments, these high-end scrubs and lab coats are resistant to almost every type of stain. They also wick moisture away from the body and maintain freshness by preventing odors from trapping in the garment, even during a 24 hour shift. Most importantly, they are flattering to the female figure. Now, female clinicians can wear lab coats and scrubs to work, and not be embarrassed about their appearance - a previously widespread source of frustration.
