What to carry in the BLACK BAG?

[Guest guest]

Hey Y'all. . . (just back from Texas)

So, I am planning to do a lot more house calls and I'm

putting together my " black bag. " If ya ever need a good

one just go to a Home Depot or some such store and

look at electrician's bags. Lots of pockets and very

durable and cheap (mine was $29.99). A long, long, long,

long time ago there used to be standing room only lectures

at our local hospital on " What to carry in the black bag, " but

no more. . . so. . . what do y'all think should be in there???

My ideas so far:

stethoscope

BP cuffs

oto/opthalmoscopes

thermometer

speculum

stuff to repair lacerations

UA dips

Preg tests

Strep tests

Emergen-C

PulseOx

All kindsa fun drugs:

Predisone

Vicodin

Phenergan

Cipro

Keflex

Amox

PenVK

Motrin

Tylenol

Benadryl

Epi-pen

Other ideas?

Looking forward to IMP CAMP!! Can't wait to meet everyone.
