Hey everyone! I’m starting my first RN job in a procedural unit (IR/cath/endo) and I’m trying not to overbuy a bunch of stuff I won’t use

What are the actual essentials you use every shift vs what people say you need but don’t?

I already have basics like scrubs and a stethoscope, but I’m debating things like: shoes (worth investing a lot?), compression socks, clipboard, work bag

Also any random “you’ll thank yourself later” items would be appreciated. Trying to keep it simple but smart. Thanks!!
