Hi all! I'm going to be starting my first Camp RN position. I'm currently a school RN and I am still a fairly new RN to begin with but I won't be alone and have other experienced health professionals around me at camp. The camp has a pretty awesome "Welcome Packet" that includes a ton of information like what to expect, what to do, and what to bring. I also brought the book, "The Basics of Camp Nursing" by Linda Ebner Erceg and I've bookmarked a lot of great links and information from this thread. But I wondering what do you all you awesome camp nurses bring to camp besides the usual hiking boots/sneakers, sunscreen, and sleeping bag? I do have my perfectly purple Littmann on the list along with my Nurse Pro Pack which is my fancy handy-dandy fanny-pack for on the go situations. Thanks in advance for any and all inspiration!
