Why do nurses use fob watches instead of wristwatches?
Fob watches are practical and hygienic in many clinical settings. They keep time visible for observations and time-sensitive tasks without needing a wristwatch, which may be restricted or less suitable for infection control policies.

Penlights are commonly used for basic assessments such as pupil response checks and quick visual examinations in low-light environments.
