~SANTA'S COMING~
December is here which means Christmas/Hanukkah/Kwanzaa is around the corner! So, start making those lists and checking them twice ✓✓ Finding items to add to your gift list, or shopping for people going into healthcare can be difficult...and expensive. Below 10 gift recommendations for people in healthcare ranging from $5-300.
1. ERKA Stethoscope
Stethoscopes are a NECESSITY for all individuals working in healthcare and it's important to find a good quality one so that you are able to hear all breath sounds, heart sounds, abdominal sounds, and so on. Unfortunately, stethoscopes are not cheap. Thankfully, ERKA makes great quality stethoscopes for an affordable price! Plus, they have a variety of color options allowing you to find one that fits you best!
Price: $100-$178

2. A good medical book
There are SO MANY great books out there right now that really allow you to think about patients, your career, and all that it entails. They move you in ways that you couldn't even imagine (sometimes be prepared with some tissues). One of my favorite books that i have read is "When Breath Becomes Air" by Paul Kalanithi. This book shares the story of a neurosurgeon in his journey to find the meaning of death through his patients.
Other books:
"Complications" by Atul Gawande
"Better" by Atul Gawande
"Being Mortal" by Atul Gawande
"When the Air Hits Your Brain" by Frank Vertosick

3. Bose QuietComfort 35 Headphones
Noise canceling headphones can be life savors while in school. They allow you to study in pretty much any setting with the comfort of a quiet background or music. I personally do not have Bose but these specific headphones were on my Christmas list this year. I have used my friends and they are simply amazing and truly cancel out so much noise while producing great quality sound at the same time.
Price: $299
4. Medthusiast
What better way to show off your passion and love for the medical field then an adorable, comfortable tank top, t-shirt, sweatshirt, or mug?! I absolutely love my medthusiast t-shirt. I wear it for my cardiology exams, because it actually has a real anatomical heart (my nerdy side is coming out). The company was founded by an amazing Physician Assistant who creates accurate, and adorable medical clothing and accessories. They have quotes such as: "Drop the Beat-Adenosine", "Its a Beautiful Day to Save Lives", "Scrubs and Scalpels", "On Call Hair Dont Care", "The Best Way to a Woman's Heart is Between the Fifth and Sixth Ribs".

5. Medelita Scrubs
Another staple item in the medical field is great scrubs. I LOVE Medelita scrubs. They are extremely comfortable and flattering. Their scrubs provide you with pockets in all the right places, and reinforced seaming for durability and improved fit. Their fabric is antimicrobial, odor-free, and shrink-free. As an extra bonus, you can get your scrubs embroidered by their phenomenal embroidery team!
