supplies for hfcc 120/126

I used the clipboard that they sold at the fair. It has a calculator on the clip part, and all kinds of info on the board part. I put my pens and penlight in my pocket protector, and stethoscope around my neck. I brought my Davis drug guide with me to clinical, but found that most units already have at least one copy on the floor. You don't want to bring too much because there really is nowhere to put it (remember, we are "guests" on their floor). In 155 I found that I needed the drug book more than 126.

I really found the clipboard w/ storage helpful during clinicals. Anyone in my group w/out one wished they had gotten it.

I almost bought a PDA last semester but thought I'd wait and see if I needed it. I did not need it at all. Once I'm a nurse I'll be getting one I'm sure, but it was not at all necessary for me. No one in my group (or school that I know of ) had one.

As for the Davis, at my hospital, you really needed your own. Several people borrowed mine too.

I also bought a tote bag at Kohls on sale and use it as my clinical bag. I keep my clipboard, pen light, steth, Davis, pens, hospital ID etc in there. It's good to know that I won't misplace my things at home or in the hospital.

Someone had sad somewhere on her that they got a clipboard like that at walmart for like 2 bucks and saved a ton of money!!!! That's where I'm gonna look.
