Customizing Your Scrubs with Patches and Pins

In the world of healthcare, scrubs are a daily uniform—but that doesn’t mean they have to be boring. Adding patches and pins to your scrubs is a fun and expressive way to personalize your look, show off your personality, and build connection with your coworkers and patients. At ScrubHaven, we love helping healthcare professionals create custom looks that are both stylish and meaningful.

1. Why Customize Your Scrubs?

Customizing your scrubs isn’t just about aesthetics—it’s about making your uniform yours. Whether it’s a motivational quote, your favorite cartoon character, or a symbol of your profession, patches and pins can:

• Showcase your personality

• Start conversations with patients

• Promote causes or beliefs that matter to you

• Help identify roles and departments in a creative way

2. Types of Custom Patches and Pins

There are endless options when it comes to scrub customization. Some popular choices include:

• Name or title patches (RN, LPN, Tech)

• Embroidered logos for your workplace or organization

• Fun enamel pins that reflect hobbies, holidays, or moods

• Awareness ribbons for health-related causes like breast cancer or autism

• Cute or seasonal designs (pumpkins, hearts, stethoscopes, etc.)

You can rotate them throughout the year or create a signature look that stays consistent with your professional identity.

3. Professional Yet Personal

It’s important to stay within your employer’s dress code, but many facilities support personalization as long as it’s neat and appropriate. Consider placing pins on your badge reel or top pocket, and opt for patches that are cleanly sewn or heat-pressed. If you're in charge of team gear, branded patches are also a great way to build unity without sacrificing personality.

4. Custom Group Orders for a Unified Look

For offices and teams, customized scrubs with matching patches or pins create a polished, professional look while also building team spirit. Whether you're outfitting a dental practice, urgent care clinic, or entire hospital department, ScrubHaven can help you design the perfect combination of scrub style, color, and customization to reflect your team’s energy.

Adding patches and pins to your scrubs is a small touch that makes a big difference. It boosts morale, helps connect with patients, and makes your day a little brighter. At ScrubHaven, we offer custom embroidery, group ordering, and a growing collection of patches and accessories to help you stand out—in the best way.
