The uniform as a garment that characterizes health personnel has undergone various changes, ideally it is cotton becase it controls moisture, is water resistant, hypoallergenic and adapts to weather conditions.
Proper dress corresponds to a nursing professional, as it instills respect and admiration because his image is of trust, knowledge and values before society. That is why the proper use of this is not only a matter of integrity and aesthetics but also projects purity, goodness and peace.In the hospital environment it is necessary that clothing and accessories have a daily and correct clea-ning; however, studies show that clothing and accessories are contaminated, which is why we review some articles that allow us to talk about the importance of hygiene to prevent health care-related infections.
