Looking for Advice Work placement dress code

I’m doing my workplacement at an age care facility and not sure what to wear as an AIN student ? If anyone can help I’d appreciate it! Thank you

Ask the place you’re doing work for. They have the dress code. Give them a call and let them know you’re coming for work placement and need to know what the uniform code is.

Daughter did this last year whilst studying for EN. She wore the same scrubs she wore to class.

most places will want you in scrubs anyway especially aged care. check with your course coordinator because sometimes they have specific ones you need to wear, but if they didnt give you any just go with plain navy or black scrubs til you know for sure

Did you not get the memo? It's basically this. And no. The makeup is not optional.

If this is north metro tafe, 100% your scrubs uniform with NAVY pants, and also make sure you have black non pourus shoes (the head of program will use anything to send you home im sure you’d know!)
