 I don't know. I haven't noticed. I've seen nurses wearing white 
 a lot and print stuff with funny squiggles. 
  
   It  is however a Good Idea (tm)  Aides in pink (hmm the guys too?) 
 doctors in say blue (was green once)  nurses in another color, 
 PA in another.  The idea being anyone in pt care wears a color 
 dictated by their licensure.   Their clothes should also have 
 BIG  identifying tags  with name, etc. 
  
   It would make identifying that person at your bedside is 
 easier, which can be very important sometimes (try being sick, 
 recovering from anaesthesia sometimes, even from a minor op) 
  
   In fact having ppl wear funny hats is also a possibility.
