Essentials for getting through a shift at the hospital
I've worked in a hospital lab for 10+ years, and I know it can be rough. Here's a list of things that are needed for those long hours.
Scrubs
Wonderwink has a bunch of different styles of scrubs plus a ton of colors to choose from.
These are great, also. Again, a lot of different colors in the jogger style.
This is one of my favorite brands of scrubs. They're super light and comfortable.
Cherokee scrubs are extremely durable. I had pairs for 10 years that I just got rid of.
These scrubs are great. They come in different styles, fits, and colors.
Fabletics just launched scrubs. They have a gym feel, and they're a little more sturdier than some others.
These under scrub tops are phenomenal! They're so comfy.
This jacket is great. Sometimes people like jackets better because you can take them on or off as opposed to under scrub tops.
These headbands are great to keep hair out of your face while working.
These another great option when you're busy.
This is a little pricey, but the benefits are amazing. It's a revolutionary bra that helps correct your posture. I'm looking in a microscope or at a computer screen often, so this is helpful in keeping me aligned. Plus, if Taylor Swift is a fan of it...
Shoes
These shoes are super comfortable on your feet. Comfy shoes are a must for long shifts.
These are another fabulous option for your feet.
Snacks and Energy
Insulated lunch bags are always a good idea, and they have so many options.
These containers are great for lunches and snacks.
It gets busy, so it's always a good idea to have a grab and go option like these.
These energy drinks are great for when the mid shift slump hits.
Hydration is a must!
These packets are super helpful for busy shifts. Sometimes you can't always drink a lot of water, so these are great to add an extra boost of hydration.
