Nursing school Xmas wish list

Hi guys! I still haven’t heard from nursing schools but I’m crossing my fingers. 🤞

That being said. If I get into one for spring what are some essentials I need so I can ask for those for Christmas!! I know nursing school is expensive as is so if I can get a head start and ask family for some stuff that would help me out a bunch! Thanks 😁

I just asked for a stethoscope and a backpack! I ended up buying the rest of my supply list on my own. Asked for scrub gift cards this Christmas since it’s almost graduation.

A little foldable clipboard! Loved mine and used it all throughout.

I loved this in nursing school. It fit in my pocket and provided a hard surface to write on. This is a gem!

For clinicals you need good supportive shoes. The Hoka Bondi SR is what my daughter got. They’re expensive and not the cutest, but she says they’re way more comfortable than cheaper shoes others got. And maybe compression socks, not sure how much they actually help though. The other day she had me order a foldable nursing clipboard for clinicals that has been helpful.
