Etiquette Say hello and smile when greeting people. Put your phone away when talking to others. Make eye contact when someone is speaking to you. Use polite language—no slang or swearing.

Dress Code

Wear your ID badge at all times. Wear neat, clean clothes that fit well. Closed-toe shoes and pulled-back hair are required in clinical areas. No hoodies, ripped jeans, or flip-flops.
