Essential Medical Gear for Travel Nurse

I also have my stethoscope, which I definitely need. No matter where I go, what I'm doing. As a nurse, it's kind of like I feel naked without it. So I always take it. And my blood pressure cuff. You just never know when something may happen or someone may need a nurse. Or a nurse's assistant. So, I take these things. And you never know. Like, I had an instance - I was out of town with family. And I have an uncle who does have cancer. And he wasn't feeling good and he just had a fever and was feeling awful, but I had my items, and I had my stethoscope and my blood pressure cuff, and I checked on him, listened to him, did his blood pressure. And his blood pressure was low. He actually had to wind up being admitted to the hospital on that trip because he was having some issues with his illness. So, as a nurse, I know you may not think you need it all the time, but it's always good to take these two important things with you. So I'll go ahead and pack these. This compartment also can be used for the small toiletries. You can pack a little bag with just your toothpaste, toothbrush, the travel size body wash, lotion, or anything else you'll need. The trip is pretty short and almost every hotel, everything you'll need to take care of your hygiene, they'll have at the hotel. So, when I'm packing light like this, I don't even worry about that stuff. I just get the basic necessities and I make sure I make it on out to where I need to go.
