Do’s – what to take with you
- Basic equipment, such as:
- Fob watch with second hand (to measure heart/respiratory rates) – ideally you should not be wearing anything below your elbow
- Pocket notebook and pen
- Curved scissors – with your name on!
- Plus maybe:
- Digital thermometer
- Slip lead
- Pen torch
- Stethoscope
- Calculator – for doses
- Your lunch (!)
- There may not be facilities close to the practice to buy something for lunch and it is much cheaper to make your own on a student budget!
