5 items

[design_student]

Hello everyone, I am currently a design student working on designing new scrubs to help with your organizational needs.

What I am wondering is...What are the top 5 items you must have with you at all times while at work.

Ex. pen...highlighter...charts...stethoscope.

My main focus is all floor nurses working in the hospital setting, but all feedback is appreciated!

Thanks again,

From a male RN perspective....so dont read too much into this and dont make your scrubs pink!!!

1. Gotta have pockets ( I feal lonely w/o them), I wear a fanny pack even w/ cargo pants.

2. Pens ( @ least 2 ball point click types and maybe a highlighter )

3. Stethoscope w/ tape roll.

4. Lots of small stuff in said fanny pack ( alcohol wipes, hemostats, line caps, coins for vending, a calculator/ Spanish translator....)

5. Thats it , thats all I need...and this chair and lamp, thats it ! Just this chair and lamp . And this ashtray. And my dog, come on $#it-Head...:rotfl:
