Care Package Ideas

Hi, Nursing Students!

I'm wondering what you might like to get in a care package from home. So far for my grandaughter I've thought of coffee gift card, granola bars, hand sanitizer, insoles, Advil, hair ties, stapler (for when everything is falling apart) Hershey Hugs and Kisses, and a fidget (for when things get really tense).

Is there any reference book/cheat sheet/ flash card set nursing students are using these days? Anything else?

Thank you very much in advance!

    Hi Katillac,

    This is a great post, and the fidget is such a good idea, as well as everything else you've listed.

    I am not a student but asked my niece (who is a college student and sitting near me), and she suggests these things: multi-color post-it notes in different sizes; small, pocket-sized notepads; a pack of different color highlighters; cough drops; pocket-sized packages of kleenex; chapstick; non-scented hand lotion; microwave popcorn; and lots of chocolate.

    Thank you so much for the terrific suggestions! I incorporated several in my shopping. I also found a You Can Do It key chain and a Fidget Spinner for $1 each. My lucky day.
