Maybe search for the uniform policy for nursing students on their website.

Hi! Yes, I believe so. I've been on placement with nurses who did this for religious reasons and also just because sometimes it can get cold on the wards.

Hi @Queen09

I have just replied to your PM, but in case anyone else is wondering about this, it is perfectly acceptable to wear layers under your tunic, as long as they don’t go below your elbow.

Hope this helps! 🙂

You can, however, when dealing with a patient, you'll need to roll them up for infection control.
