Good gift for a new Case Manager?

My friend (who has been a floor RN for 3 yrs) just got a job as a Case Mgr driving to 4 different hospitals to do chart reviews. I want to get her a gift - is there something that would help her on her new job? I need ideas - thanks.

Depends on if she is bringing a laptop, binder, waterbottle, snack etc. If so, a great roller bag!!! I say this even though they are dorky. She won't have a place to put her stuff, she also might need to pick up and move her stuff quickly to just be outta someone's way. When I did case management, I found that I loved having that roller bag that I could just drop my stuff in, like a desk drawer. I could scoot it so the bag part was tucked under a desk area and out of the way. It's also nice to have free hand walking through a parking lot, etc. you just stop if you need both hands for something, and there is nothing to have to find a place to set down. No sore shoulders! Mine is a black JansSport. I got it a few years back on sale somewhere for like $40.
