Watches for Nursing Students

Nursing Students Pre-Nursing

Published

Hello guys,

I just recently got accepted into a Nursing School in Portland, Or. Time is flying by and I will be starting my first term at the end of September. We were given a list of things to purchase such as uniforms, shoes, and a watch with a second hand. I currently wear an apple watch religiously, but it does time out after 10 seconds. Should I consider buying a cheap watch for school, or will my apple watch work OK? I was reading that a lot of hospitals have a no watch policy due to watches harvesting bacteria but, I work at a local hospital and I see all the nurses are wearing them.

Thanks in advance.

Specializes in CNA to RN.
