Nurses sound off! Steth belt clip or around the neck?

2Jul 2, '10 by vhern246How do you carry your stethoscope?
Do you keep it around your neck, tucked in your pocket or do you have the belt clip?
Do you even keep it with you?
Or do you use the (shudder) public, staff use steths?
Also, what kind do you have and what color?

0Jul 2, '10 by PatMac10,RNI'm not a nurse yet, but a Pre-nursing student. During my CNA training I used a cheap Prestige medical dual head stethoscope. We didn't our sthethoscope that much but when we practiced walking around my school taking students bp's mostif us did around the neck. My stethoscope is a clear frosted color. -

I have a Littmann Cardiology III in a limited edition super light Pearl Blue.
