just wanted to say i love your videos. im going to school to be a dtr and im finding your videos very helpful. i have a question though it may be random lol. im volunteering at a hospital to get some experience before my supervised practice. what should i wear going into the hospital? and what type of shoes do rds usually wear in that setting? any help would be appreciated. thanks, Ashlie

Hi Ashlie, RDs are usually allowed to wear business casual clothing. They usually have on some black slacks, a cute sweater, and they LOVE to wear Dansko shoes! However, at some (few from what I've noticed) hospitals RDs will wear scrubs. But I think you would be fine to wear slacks, a sweater/blouse, and closed toed shoes (if in the kitchen) or flats (if walking on the floor). :) Hope this helps - it's always a good idea to be dressed appropriately, great question!
