Introduction
With the widespread of the covid 19 pandemic, a profuse chunk of information has surfaced the awareness list. One of them is the culture surrounding the usage of scrubs in the medical field. Scrubs are not just an equipment for self protection but also a form of recognition for the health workers. They have evolved from a butcher’s apron back in the 1940s to a convenient uniform in the modern day world. Scrubin is designing a plan to raise awareness about the usage of these scrubs, while making it a fun, comfortable and a customizable wear for health care workers to invest in.

Used only in OTs, the importance of the usage of scrubs has been underestimated in most countries. The uniform system for doctors is usually a white overcoat and compulsory scrubs when operating patients in OTs. Owing to infections and contaminations while working, several hospitals in the United States and England have made it compulsory to wear scrubs both inside and outside the OT. Several other countries are catching up to this constructive change, including India and Scrubin is joining in promoting this awareness across the country.
Nida and Kailash, the founders of Scrubin, have been training as doctors in the medical field and while working in their internships, they noticed the culture surrounding the usage of scrubs in India. The doctors in the country use scrubs only in OTs and in non-metropolitan cities, the usage of scrubs by the health workers is almost non - existent. Wrapping their heads around this concern, they decided to start raising awareness about the importance of this medical suit. Scrubs are not just a safety equipment for the healthcare workers but also form a recognition and a respect for the people working in this field. And so, Nida and Kailash have taken up the initiative to spread these powerful messages regarding the usage of scrubs by making it a customizable equipment which can be altered according to the user’s tastes.
