The medical field is always growing and changing. Over time, many of the most popular medical techniques are eliminated.

Coffee Coffee, coffee, coffee. Coffee in healthcare equates to culture. There is something about sharing a fresh pot of coffee from the Bunn coffee maker in the breakroom with your favorite colleagues, or walking down to your hospital’s Starbucks and picking up some beverages for the crew. Nurses love Yeti tumblers because they keep drinks hot or cold for long periods of time, and let’s face it, breaks can be rare for some of us.
