Stuff for clinicals

[Dawn Vylet]

I will be starting clinicals in January. I know that I will need to order a stethoscope. Does anyone have any recommendations? What else might I need/be helpful for clinicals? Thanks in advance.

I start clinicals in February, and we had to purchase a $100 clinical bag from my school. It's a bag that we MUST carry with us. It has things in it like;

-protective gowns

-iv starter kit

-alcohol wipes, gauze, pen light,tape

-tracheostomy care tray

-30mL sodium chloride

-demo dose powder

-Tegaderm dressing

-gloves

-250 mL sterile water Injection bag

-Foley Catheter Tray

I figure I will have to add a few things like a Lock, hand sanitizer, stethoscope, pens, drug book and clipboard.
