One of the reasons we are behind the name and role on scrub caps is because it helps improve communication and diversity.
More than 200 internal medicine residents, male and female, at Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston were given staff badges displaying their occupational title ("Doctor"). Two months later, 111 of them completed a survey (55.0% of them women) and four out of five participants reported having been misidentified in the past.
Women were more than three times as likely than men to say they had experienced role misidentification in the past.
