HEALTH Minister Dr Zaliha Mustafa has defended the uniforms worn by nurses in Malaysia stating that there is nothing wrong with them after a PAS MP said they were too tight.
Dr Zaliha emphasised that nurses adhere to ethical guidelines regarding their uniforms and from her perspective, there are no issues with the current attire.
“There are ethics nurses adhere to when it comes to their uniforms and it is clear to me that there is no problem.
“We have just tabled the Health White Paper and should be focusing on what is important which is providing the best health services to the people. For now, I do not see the uniform as an issue,” she added.
Meanwhile, Negri Sembilan Srikandi Keadilan chief Nadhirah Halim criticised the opposition politicians for questioning the use of specific uniforms in the nursing profession.
