White Coats

All White Coats will need to be obtained prior to the date of orientation. As this process can take up to six weeks, please make sure that you have ordered your white lab coats prior to April 6th. To ensure appropriate sizing for your white coat it is recommended that you receive a fitting for your white coats at your local uniform store. Once you have been fitted, you may then proceed with ordering your lab coat at the NSU bookstore website. You can order your white lab coat through the NSU bookstore at https://nsu.fashionsealhealthcare.com/.

Scrubs

Students are required to order scrubs and have them embroidered through a local company - The Warden Company. These scrubs will be worn at any clinical site that does not require hospital laundered scrubs. Additionally, students will have the opportunity to wear professional attire or these scrubs to classes.
