A GREAT NEW IDEA TO ID RNs
Going to nursing school full-time while working full-time is quite a load; add caring for two small children, and it’s no wonder that Stacey Tatroe wanted to celebrate becoming an RN. She showed up at work with a sash and crown… and scrubs she hand-stamped with “RN.” Nurses thought they were the best thing since sliced bread. Doctors agreed. “They said, ‘I wish everyone would wear these so we’d know who’s who.’ Doctors I’d dealt with for three years, who had signed orders behind my name, never knew I was an LPN, not an RN.” Spurred on by the positive reviews, Tatroe teamed up with her husband and got a patent. Cherokee RN ID Scrub tops are available in white, navy, pewter, hunter and black, $25, with more colors coming soon. Pair with Workwear Stretch Solid pants, $25 to $28.
