I'm new to home health and so far, so good. A lot to learn but I'm enjoying it. So glad to be out of the hospital grind.
I need a good two-compartment supply bag. Right now, I'm using a big (too big) gym bag with a bunch of outside pockets. Still learning about "clean bag" technique.
Anyone know where I can buy a good bag? Oh, and organizational skills aren't my strong suit. So a lot of pockets and loops might help.

Try Galls.com they sell rescue kits and supply bags with lots of compartments.
Good luck

Hopkins medical supply sells bags as well. Often the agency will supply your bag with their logo on it. To hold wipes, alcohol pads, etc. I use one of those little freebie plastic zipper bags that often come with a cosmetic special. To separate my other supplies I use slide lock plastic bags. Each nurse is different with what they carry and how they carry it. You might also want to get a plastic container for your car to carry extras (catheters, extra dressing supplies, etc.) that you may need out on the road.
Good luck!

Agree with traveler. I like these bags.
