The current nursing attire usually consists of a skirt or trousers and a colourful blouse. Nurses in specialised areas such as operating theatres or the ICU have distinct identifying colours. The current uniforms of all female nursing staff are of a much more simpler design than those of earlier years and often resemble those worn by office staff. Polyviscose is used for the skirts and trousers while the blouses are made from Polyester or Poly-cotton.
