Good Supply Case to sit on computer on wheels?

Hello!

I'm a brand new nurse buying all my supplies for my first nursing job. I see a lot of nurses have small bags (some that zip and look like makeup cases and some that are more square, stand up and are open on top) that they place on their computer on wheels that holds all the needed supplies. If you use one that you like, can you tell me where you got it? I've been looking online but I haven't found any. I would like one that's a material you can wipe down with the wipes. I would also like it to be small enough so it's not taking up all the space and yet can keep the tools organized.

Thanks!

    This is what you see in the actual department you will be working in, right? Just make sure. In my hospital, it varies, and several departments keep fully stocked bedside carts in the patient rooms so nurses don't need much in the way of supplies.

    My preferred method is a uniform top with large pockets big enough for a couple of pens, a brain sheet of patient info, some alcohol wipes and maybe a penlight. If you do want a case, a soft-sided lunchbox with a zip top is an option. It is washable and has a wipe-clean interior.

    Even the penlight is optional if the unit keeps flashlights at the bedside too.

    Don't overbuy anything until you start work and see what you actually need.
