Although infection control and cleanliness has always been important, now, more than ever, it has become an increasingly vital focus for care providers. Choosing the right clothing can improve not just the patients’ safety, but also protect yourself, other staff and visitors from easily transmissible illnesses too. Scrubs should provide an effective barrier for pathogens, reduce the risk of infection, be comfortable to wear and durable.


High standards of workwear in the care and healthcare industry is fundamental. Premium scrub supplier, Kara, recently launched a new collection of functional yet fashion-forward scrubs, the Kara Edit. The new collection is wrinkle resistant, water resistant and is made from EditTex fabric, a motion- stretch polyester which allows for plenty of movement. The fabric is also pet hair (and human hair) resistant.


When choosing uniforms as a carer, there’s a lot to take into consideration, but key factors have to include longevity of the material, comfort, hygiene and practicality. Anything that contributes towards preventing the spread of infection in these settings is a positive, so sourcing the best materials and garments for the job is imperative.
