Hospital Appearance/Dress Code 

Students are expected to maintain a professional appearance in patient care areas.  University Medical Center has adopted UMC Appearance Policy for employees and staff.  Students are also expected to comply.  Expectations will be similar at other hospitals, so you should use these as guidelines for your appearance on all clinical rotations. Students should also read these guidelines about attire in the operating room and preoperative/postoperative areas.
