Why Choose Purple Scrubs?

Purple medical scrubs are often associated with seniority, expertise and trust. In the NHS, they may be worn by matrons, advanced nurse practitioners, safeguarding teams or clinical educators, depending on the Trust. The colour’s boldness helps staff stand out while still projecting professionalism and reassurance.

Outside the NHS, purple scrubs are popular in private healthcare, dental surgeries and aesthetic clinics, where a polished, modern look is key to building patient confidence. Whether you choose dark purple scrubs or lighter tones, the colour conveys both compassion and control.
