Caribbean Blue Scrubs

Healthcare Assistant Uniforms - HCA Caribbean Blue Official Colour Scrubs in Ireland

FAQs

What colour scrubs do HCAs wear in Ireland?
Healthcare Assistants (HCAs) in Ireland wear caribbean blue as their official uniform colour. It's a distinctive mid-blue used in HSE-affiliated hospitals and care facilities to identify HCA staff at a glance.

What is caribbean blue colour in scrubs?
Caribbean blue is a bright, clear mid-blue—warmer than ceil blue and lighter than royal blue. In Irish healthcare, it carries a specific meaning: it's the designated HCA uniform colour, making it easy to distinguish healthcare assistants from nursing and clinical staff.

What's the difference between caribbean blue, ceil blue, and bahama blue scrubs?
Ceil blue is a softer, greyer-blue traditionally worn in operating theatres. Caribbean blue is brighter and more saturated. In Irish healthcare settings, bahama blue and caribbean blue are considered the same colour. If you're looking for more blue shade scrubs, check out our navy scrubs and royal blue scrubs.

Do you stock men's caribbean blue scrubs?
Yes. We stock caribbean blue scrub tops and trousers for both men and women, including styles with six-pocket pants, jogger-style trousers, and collared scrub tops.

Can I get my caribbean blue scrubs embroidered?
Yes - custom embroidery is available on all scrubs at €8.50 per item. We can add your name, job title, or facility logo. Logo digitisation is a one-off setup fee of €60–€70 for non-vector files. Contact us for embroidery.
