Very happy with this bag decision!
I have spent the last month or so deciding on a new clinical bag. I wanted something spacious enough to fit all of the supplies I will need, but still compact. I was between purchasing this bag or the Nurse Mates Ultimate bag. I was wary because this bag did not have any picture reviews, but the video for it looked promising.<br /><br />I have only just received the bag today, so this review is my first impression and is not reflective of long-term use. I also wanted to provide some more pictures that others can use for size comparison. Unfortunately, most of my chosen medical equipment is also black and may be difficult to see.<br /><br />Things I like:<br />- The shoulder strap is comfortable and the hooks are metal.<br />- The sizing of the bag is awesome. It has plenty of space for items but still looks compact. The side view shows the width of the bag with the too-large organizer and the patient folder containing 2 ATI books.<br /><br />- There is a large front zipper pocket, in my picture it holds an orange piece of paper that is 8.5x11" so you can visualize the width and depth.<br /><br />- There is a large zipper pocket that folds down.<br />• Inside of it are 2 large padded pockets (I have my stethoscope in one and my foldable clipboard in the other)<br />• The velcro pocket organizer (when closing the bag I actually stick it on upside down as my scissors are fairly large.<br />• An unpadded thin pocket on the fold-down section. This also has a few loops you could put pens in.<br />• A small zipper pocket (I have my thermometer, pulse ox, and an extra penlight in it)<br />• A hook that you could attach your keys to<br /><br />- On the back there is a pocket that contains the patient information folder. In my picture I have placed 2 ATI books in it so you can visualize the size of the folder.<br /><br />- On the inside, there is a large main compartment, a padded laptop compartment, and a thin large compartment on the opposite side.<br />• To help visualize the size of the inside compartment I have included a picture with all of my ATI textbooks and a picture with a felt organizer (slightly too large for the bag). The organizer has my Omron automatic BP cuff, 2 pocket nursing diagnosis books, a pocket drug guide, and my wallet.<br /><br />Things I don't like:<br />- Nothing really but I would love if it came with a different color interior option.
