Lab and clinical supplies!
This is my stethoscope I’ve been using for school. You don’t need a fancy one or anything more expensive. This does the job great, while still being high quality!
Classic III Stethoscope
I love these highlighters ❤️❤️
Sharpie Clear View Highlighter Sticks, 8pk
Absolutely necessary for head to toes !
MEUUT 3 Pack Medical Pen Lights with Batteries
This is the case I have been using! While not totally necessary, I do recommend ❤️💕❤️💕
Stethoscope Case
These are my clinical shoes. I have the all white ones because that’s what my school requires, but they are honestly easy to clean and maintain. Mostly leather based material and super comfy!!!!
UNO - Stand on Air
This is a water proof watch with a second hand! Gotta count those respirations and heart rate ❤️❤️❤️❤️! I use this one in the white color to match my shoes. No complaints!!
Asan Ge Nurse Watch for Medical Professionals
I have a separate tote for clinicals where I keep my essentials—stethoscope, penlight, alcohol pads, notebook, etc. Makes mornings so much smoother when it’s all packed and ready!!!!! BAGSMART has some totally affordable options that look great too!!...
Travel Laptop Tote Bag with Zipper for Work-BAGSMART
Life savers for vitals ranges, lab values, EKGs, and med calculations. I clip them behind my badge reel for clinicals and whip them out when I blank on something mid-question!
Badge Card Sets
Trust me, you’ll thank yourself later. Long clinical days = sore legs. Compression socks help with circulation and keep swelling down. Plus, you can get them in cute patterns.
Save those legs! Compression socks are needed
You need a solid black pen that doesn’t smear and a few extras for your classmates who forget theirs 😉 I like Pilot G2s
Quality pens 🖊️
These are so fun! Your school might not let you do this, but if they do absolutely get them!
Badge reels!! 💕💕💕💕
Okay you need erasable 🖊️ for your clinical packets/assignments that have to be written in pen!!
Erasable Pens
For clinical, you have to carry around loads of papers. I really wish I would have gotten a clipboard like this sooner!
Clipboard
Lecture and studying materials
Large notecards are great for studying. I like these better than the regular size because of how in-depth my notes are 🩺
Large Index Cards
White boards for studying!!! Honestly, this is a great deal. Comes with the stand and markers!!! I use this one for each of my exams, and it is really helpful for me! Pretend to teach the material to yourself or someone else, and you will remember so...
Grtard Magnetic Dry Erase Board with Stand 16x12
You need more pencils girl!
BIC Break-Resistant Mechanical Pencils with Erasers ...
There is so much to keep track of with tests, simulations, assignments, and clinical hours. I use a paper planner because it helps me physically see my week, but a lot of my friends use Google Calendar with color coding. This one I listed here works ...
Planner!
OK, I don’t have this one but a lot of my classmates do and they swear by it! It’s definitely on my list to buy :)
