Quickly fix your medical uniforms

The nurses spent most of their time wandering around the ward or taking quick notes on their patients’ conditions. They often scamper around with stretchers to transport a patient who needs immediate treatment. They would bruise and scrape against the metal gurney or against the wall just to get down to get their next patient. Therefore, nurses’ jobs are action-packed and almost always deal with clothes ripping or something like that. The actions of this nurse at some point provoke the most precious medical gowns of hers. Therefore, there are also small things that nurses should carry with them in their bags besides hygienic hand lotions, alcohol, pens, sticky notes. Due to accidental tearing of nursing gowns, they needed to have a batch of things or tools to easily repair their torn gowns.

Here are some quick fix tools you might want to add to your bag in case you accidentally break it. It will probably give you great relief when you can have these.

The Ribbon Toupee got its name from the hairstyle most used by men called a toupee. A toupee is used to cover some part of the head with the scalp already exposed and a ribbon is used to hold the toupee. Toupee tape usually comes in different sizes, pre-cuts, or colors.
