I can't think of a reason to get into scrubs, unless they have had a bone marrow transplant recently. Some centers do make you get into full isolation garb before each visit, others don't. But in regular run of the mill Leukemia, as long as you aren't sick, there is no reason I can think of to wear scrubs.
