Please don't dress as a sexy nurse for Halloween, say nurses

Nurses are sick of people dressing up in 'sexy' nurse outfits for Halloween, so they say.

The Quebec Order of Nurses, a Canadian government non-profit is encouraging people to ditch the popular costumes this year, saying they devalue the nursing profession.

In a post called “No to eroticizing the nursing profession,” the Ordre des infirmières et infirmiers du Québec created a video explaining their stance and said people should dress up as normal nurses instead.

“Nurses take care of us,” the video says in French. “Let’s take care of their image.”

It is always best to play things safe.
