What are some back up things that would be good to keep in my car for CNA classes?

I'm starting a CNA class soon and I was trying to think of some things that I might want to keep in my car while we are doing the hands on part at the hospital. I was thinking about having a bag with things like a change of scrubs and some other things. I'm kinda drawling a blank on what else to add. Any ideas? Also any tips on bing a CNA are welcome!! I've done some work with disabled elderly so I'm not a total newbie.

Extra scrubs and undershirt, socks, water, some snacks, Chapstick, pens, a marker, a small note pad, Tylenol, some small cash. Basically anything you think you might need. I wouldn't bring much into the actual training site. Since you are going to have your car with you, you can always run out on break and get any extras. Have fun and good luck.

a small note pad and pen are a MUST. A change of scrubs is always a good idea too. Shouldn't need much beyond that.

not just scrubs, a complete change of clothes, including shoes.
