    We are currently reviewing our OR Attire Policy, our question is:

    * Do your staff who work in Recovery/EDSU/Day Surgery Unit wear scrubs?

    * If they don’t wear scrubs how do you manage this?

    * Do you all have a red line-defining the access to procedural areas?

    * How do you police staff who are wearing scrubs outside of the theatre area, e.g. going to staff canteen?

    Dear Kimberley,

    Our Recovery Staff wear scrubs as the complex is part of OT. Day Surgery
    staff do not wear scrubs as they do not go into OT. The unit is
    separate.

    People in scrubs outside the OT are not policed very well at the moment.
    It would be interesting to see how other hospitals police their OT
    staff.

    Cheers
