What do you carry? - The mega thread

[exodus]

Uncle Mikes Pro-3 Nylon duty belt
Company issued Nextel
CPR Barrier mask in nylon pouch
2prs. of non-latex gloves in nylon pouch
Personal Nextel
Sure Fire 6P in nylon pouch
Gerber Mutli-tool in nylon pouch
Key clip

I like nylon duty gear, it's easier to clean, and does not absorb fluids, like leather duty gear does.

Wacka wacka! You don't need all that lol.

You should have seen what I carried when I was a Police Officer....now, that was a lot of gear

 

[nomofica]

I also carry a basic CPR face shield and a pair of gloves on the inside pocket of my jacket, and have ever since my First Aid/CPR C training a while back.:blush:

 

[mycrofft]

I'd probably put a CPR mask on backwards.

Has it an elastic headband? Can you see well enough to cross the street at night?B)

I carry gloves and a few pens mostly. And of course my wallet and phone. Maybe a flashlight. And sometimes I stuff my stethoscope in one of the side pockets.

Oh, and gum. I'm like stinking addicted to orbit raspberry mint gum.

X 2 on the gloves. Carry a pen your pt's can use/ steel and you that only you will use. a clip on flashlight is nice as well as stated above

 

[abckidsmom]

My leatherman has a small LED flashlight that's in the same case. I use it all the time.

 

[Medic Tim]

Where I work we all wear the 2in duty belts.(part of the uniform) some don't carry anything . I have a cell phone case, pager case, small flashlight and a swivel radio clip thing. Wallet and gloves(leather or hatch weather depending) in right cargo. Field guides/acls etc in left cargo. Sometimes a have a leatherman or rescue knife in my side pocket.

 

[bigbaldguy]

I carry a couple protein bars, a really bright but small flashlight (on overnight shifts), a small 5 inch pair of bandage scissors (no shears), my wallet, my cellphone, eye drops, Chapstick, a pair of nitrile coated cotton gloves that I mainly use when lifting homeless folks and when I have to climb into the backseat of an MVA when there's broken glass, a pen that also has a pupil light and 2 sets of extra nitrile gloves. Sounds like a lot now that I've written it all out.

Well if I weighed my pants they would probably be about 10 pounds on any given day. Right front empty, left front empty, right back wallet, left empty right cargo mini tac light clipped in , right now it is a 5.11 atac a1, gloves, purell, and Nite eyes s-clips for hanging bags, left cargo notebook and narcs, gerber on belt and spring clip with O2 wrench and way to many keys
