“…In contrast, for someone who has gone through trauma, a trustworthy and empathic face of the psychiatrist and appropriate verbal messages breaks the barrier. It is also well documented that individuals with mental health difficulties have specific preferences to professional attire, but without the white coats that doctors generally wear (Long et al, 2017).…”

Although increasingly disputed, the white coat uniform is ubiquitous in geriatric care, which may reflect a phenomenon called medicalisation of ageing. This narrative review is the first attempt at integrating several theoretical approaches, such as the "white coat effect" and "enclothed cognition", in order to gain a comprehensive understanding of the use of this clothing item. Based on extensive empirical evidence, we will examine the consequences of wearing a uniform, not only on patients (in this case, older patients) and healthcare professionals, but also on their relationship. The white coat has powerful symbolic functions for healthcare professionals and is still preferred by older adults. However, the negative repercussions of wearing a uniform require us to question its use, particularly in environments where older persons live, such as nursing homes.
