20 Best Work Totes For Nurses (2023 Updated)

This bag is amazing. It carries absolutely everything. I spilled salad dressing from my lunch inside the main pocket, and it cleaned out easily. There are many pockets, so you can be as organized as you want to be, or throw everything into the large pocket if you’re in a hurry.

I’ve used it for a carry-on when traveling as well as my everyday work bag, and have bought it as a gift also. Five stars for usefulness, quality, and value!!.

Lightweight, I love it. Perfect for me after working a 12 hour shift.

Excellent gift for my daughter . She said she gets lots of compliments about her bag .Some of the other nurses want one but they’re waiting for them to go on sale.

Really strong bag with decent handles. Can get a lot in there and its great thats it folds up pretty flat to go in your handbag. Nice design and lovely slogans to suit all. Good value for money.

Love these bags. So strong and actually very cute. Bought one for a friend and they ware so touched by the sentiment behind the bag

Lovely bag. Nice size to fit in my handbags. Only used twice and zipper broken. Wasnt happy as love the bag

I ordered this bag last week and I love it! I love how professional it looks and how it fits all my medical equipment. The sliver on this bag look like reflectors. I hope it is because when I’m walking to my car at night, it would be nice to let others know I’m walking about.

I am going to order a second one just in case I’ve had this for 10 years and it breaks. Who knows if they still sell this specific bag in a couple of years and I do love the design. A must have for all nurses.

I absolutely love my bag! I even appreciated the packing of it to be delivered. It has tons of pockets and the storage for paperwork is great! And it doesn’t open up so wide that everything falls out or is exposed.

And I thought it was a much nicer bag in person than in the picture. You will definitely feel better as a nursing student or nurse with a bag that is more personalized for you. Love it. Can’t say it enough- thank you! _x000D_ _x000D_.

I bought this bag in black during the 40% off sale Kate Spade is currently having. It’s honestly, however, worth the full price. First off, it looks super sleek and elegant from the outside. But what really sold me was it’s interior.

You have 3 sections to the bag and lots of neat organizational compartments. There’s even a slot for pens! I can easily fit my umbrella, wallet, toiletry bag, pens, phone, legal pads, and laptop. Because the bag is so cleverly designed, I can quickly grab whatever I need.

My former go-to purse, like most tote bags, was just one big empty bag. Not fun to go through to find the one thing you need, especially when you’re in a rush. Do yourself a favor and snag this bag while you can! You will not regret it!.

I love this bag! I have been looking for a good work tote for years and they usually just don’t have enough pockets. But this one has tons of pockets and makes it easy to organize everything! The only complaint I have for this one is that the shape of the bag is too narrow on the top, which makes it a bit difficult for carrying things like a water bottle, etc.

Also, I’m hoping the leather on the slip pockets will stretch out a bit, as the way they are stacked, the smaller front pockets are sort of useless if there is something in the pockets behind them because they are so tight.

I carry this bag to work daily and also traveled to a conference with it last week and it was great. It sat very nicely on top of my 360 rolling carry-on for easily moving though the airport and I was able to wheel both down the aisle of the plane in front of me without having a bag on my shoulder, bumping into folks.

Had to purchase a new bag for work and I picked this one for the laptop sleeve and multiple compartments (it was also on sale). The latch can be finicky if you overfill the bag and the pouch nearest you is a bit exposed, but it’s good for reaching in and quickly grabbing your phone or sunglasses.

There are other zipped compartments where you can store items if you need extra security (while traveling, for prescriptions, etc). It was certainly an investment, even on sale, but I purchased knowing I’d be using it almost daily with the hope that the leather will wear nicely over time.

I have two other leather Kate Spade bags purchased over a decade ago and they’ve held up well so I expect this one will too.

Bought as a gift for my partner and we both love it! The space saving pockets and secure Zips are wonderful uses of bag technology! The robust material on the handles make it so it doesn’t slip off your shoulder constantly, it’s a beautiful size for a trip out and hold everything you need.

Water resistant, sleek, androgynous and beautiful!.

I love this bag. It’s a great modern, practical tote bag that keeps your items organised and easy to access and find when in a rush. Fabric is durable and easy to wipe if you scuff the fabric. I love that it’s water resistant and the rustic colour complements my outfits.

It looks and feels well made. Received item 2 days after ordering online, another bonus!.

The bag was exactly as described. Sadly I haven’t used it for travel yet, but have used it going to a study day where I needed to take lunch, clothing layers, book, umbrella etc & there was plenty of room for everything.

Love the key ring feature, so you don’t have to empty the bag to find your keys at the bottom! I chose the Limestone colour & love it.

Was happy with the quality, but my daughter’s nursing credentials were left off, even though I had “C1” listed. When they sent the preview it was not a picture of the bag so I thought I was just previewing the font.

They need to make the ordering process clearer. When I contacted them they said there was nothing they could do for me (automated response) because I had previewed it, just thinking I was previewing the font.

Maybe it was the “Christmas rush,” and C1 got overlooked. If you order from this seller, be sure you are very clear and spell out what you want on the merchandise.

I have been looking for a tote to take to class with me and to clinicals. Every bag I’ve tried was either too hard, not big enough, or just too big and everything kept rolling around. This tote is absolutely perfect! Not only have I received a lot of compliments on it, but it is exactly what I have been looking for! It’s pliable enough for me to be able to store in different spaces, and it’s not overly large to the point where all of my things roll around everywhere, but there is still enough room for me to be able to dig out what I need without having to empty out my bag! Absolutely the best bag!.

So cute! Love the design and the quality of the bag itself. As a Disney World addict, this is the perfect way to express my love for Disney while in nursing school. Such good quality, fast shipping, and the owner is so nice and really talks with you about what you want yours to look like.

Love love love!.

This set is adorable with a very nice quality appearance. I am very happy that I was lucky enough to purchase these for my daughter in law (who is a nurse) when they were on sale. I don’t think I would have paid the full price for them ($14.

99 for the tote, and $8. 99 for the zipper pouch) as that is a bit on the higher end; but they absolutely do have a great appearance. It is a sturdy canvas cloth without being too stiff or heavy. The colors are as shown, and the designs are adorable.

For the price I paid they are an excellent value. The non-sale price, I feel, is about right / average for this product.

I bought 2 of these as gifts and as soon as I took them out of the shipping box, I smelled a terrible mildew-like smell. The shipping box and contents inside were all dry. The bags were wrapped in plastic so I took them out hoping it was just the plastic.

Negative, the stench was just permeating through the plastic and worse when I removed the plastic! While the bag appear to be well-made and of decent quality, the stench was just terrible. I Febreezed the heck out of the bags multiple times and allowed them to air dry and while the smell may have gotten slightly better, it was still strong enough and pungent enough that I didn’t feel like I could give it away to anyone.

I purchased two oversized teachers totes for my two daughters. It was for Xmas. Then loved them. Couldn’t get over the size of them, were amazed at how many pockets they had. Was delighted to see a zippered pouch on the inside for personal usage.

loved the idea that there were pockets on the outside. Easy to find every thing. They are made of a very heavy canvas. The outside pockets are canvas but with a design. MY girls just loved them. The price was excellent , would have paid more in a store for this quality.

I’m a repeat customer – I bought a bag for myself 6 months ago (it’s still in mint condition, and it’s been through the fire – clinicals and 20+ lbs of books and a laptop haven’t loosened a single thread!) and wanted to gift one to a sweet young lady I know who’s about to graduate and begin nursing school.

I know the power of cute supplies; they really do give you a boost of confidence, and in a field like nursing, confidence is key. I know she’ll love this bag as much as I do. Thank you for your beautiful craftsmanship and your heart of gold! This seller is a delight to talk to and buy from.

♥\nPictured – my bag in the bag — “old”, yet looks brand new!, and the new bag in front.

These bags are just AWESOME! As a piano teacher myself, I do believe that any teacher would just love to have one of these!!! They hold all of our day to day music, and more. The quality of the bag and monogramming is just superb.

I just couldn’t ask for more. But, there was more. Monika is a wonderful, compassionate, and very talent woman. I am so happy to have made this purchase through her, and I just could not be happier!!!\n\nThank you!!!\nKaren G.

I really appreciated that she changed the color of the book to match the bag. I never asked her to do that, but she did. Made it look even better. The bag is not huge, but I think it’s adequate for a stack of papers that need graded or a lesson plan book and some papers.

Has nice pockets on the outside for additional storage. I’m hoping my future daughter-in-law loves it! I think it’s a great price!.

When I took the tote out of the plastic bag, I gagged because of the horrid musty smell. My sister, who was in the room next to me, asked what that smell was, that’s how strong it was. I cannot give the tote and matching pouch as a gift because they smell so terrible.

They will definitely be returned. It’s a shame they smell so bad because the totes are large and sturdy and would have worked out well.

I ordered 2 Nurses Tote bags & received 2 Hairstylist Tote bags. When I called, I was told they would send me a return address label, but I haven’t got it. Please send ASAP & I will return the Hairstylist bags.

The item #s are: 594153-9T6B/Conf. #1070311778.

Perfect size and style rolling tote. Just needs the handle to have multiple height adjustment on the handle. It’s all or nothing. Thank goodness I’m a tall person or the handle would be too high when extended.

I got this for my wife, and she loves it. It looks great, it’s sturdy and the quality of the build is good. There is also a water bottle holder inside, so the bottle doesn’t move/tilt around.

This was the best purchase. This holds everything I need to go to work for the day including a large binder and large Yeti. I could not have asked for anything better. A++ Highly Recommend!!!

This tote is an excellent size for heavy or bulky items. It’s very large, with a hard bottom, and strapped sides, so it can handle the weight, yet folds flat when you’re done. The material is very durable and will last a lifetime.

We bought it for boating and the essentially waterproof nature is perfect. It will hold everything we need for our family of three: 3 beach towels, sweatshirts, pants, bathing suits, coverups, hats, extras – all in one bag! Next week it will be doing double duty as luggage for a beach cottage vacation.

Lots of odd sized items will fit in it – pillows, linens, sports gear, dry foods, shoes, toys, games. the things that won’t fit in conventional luggage. I’ve been purchasing Scout Bags in various sizes for this purpose.

Now instead of a collection of oddball totes and shopping bags, our vacation luggage will be functional and nicely coordinated.

I love this bag! I am a teacher, and I finally have found the perfect bag! I love bags! They are my thing, but I until now I haven’t found the perfect one. My Scout bag is so stylish and cute. I keep getting compliments on it.

I love the six pockets on the outside. The are great for all sorts of supplies or little items. I even stash my water bottle in one. There is a small inside pocket that zips, and the entire bag has a zip closure so I feel secure putting my laptop in it, This bag is versatile so this summer I will be using it to carry supplies down to the beach, and I love that I can wipe or even hose it down to clean.

Great for traveling!!! Carries all babies needs and accessories. Fits bumbo,bouncer,toys and blankets. Perfect to also use for kids camp clothes and extras!! So easy to clean, just hose wash and let air dry!.

I am a Registered nurse and I am always carrying around some type of big bag to work with me. This bag looked much better on line when I ordered it but it 8s just okay. I will keep it but it’s nothing to write home about.

I bought this bag to bring my lunch to work in daily as well as my other necessary items. like My stethoscope! It’s a nice bag with good sturdy handle that won’t hurt your hand if the bag gets a bit heavy.

I love this canvas tote. Heavy and well built / constructed. I don’t like huge bags but this is just the right size to but my items needed for work.

The good: This bag is just big enough for the basics for a home health/hospice nurse like me, BP cuff, pulse ox, flashlight, thermometer, stethoscope, measuring tape as well as the nice mesh bag for scissors and hemostats, sharpies for marking dressings, etc.

It has nice pockets sewn into the front for calculator, note pads, ETOH swabs, etc. There is also space to put a baggie of sanitizing wipes and hand sanitizer. It is also possibly one of the best constructed bags I have seen, double seams, sturdy carrying straps, good quality materials.

Plus it is light and easy to carry. And the velcro on the bottom really does work, the bag doesn’t slide around in the car. The bad: If you need room for more than the basics then this is not the bag for you.

There isn’t any room for file storage, or if you need to take in wound supplies or other items you will need another bag. There is also no way to safely separate clean/dirty, so it is basically always “”dirty.

“” Also there aren’t any outside pockets for adde.

I LOVE IT YOU BE SURPRIZE HOW MUCH STUFF IN IT . I WOULD RECOMMEND ANY ONE TO BUY THIS IT GREAT DONT BUY THOSE CHEAP ONES .THIS A GREAT BUY

Pro: Portable, many pockets and a divider inside Cons: Small, short strap, only two small pouches on the outside

Love my new tote! If you’re a bit of an organization-freak, as every nurse should be, this is the perfect bag! It fits my water bottle & umbrella on the 2 side pockets. One pocket fits 4 K-cups! \n(b/c caffeine is a necessity).

plus 3 other easy-access pockets for snacks & other on-the-go items. \nA must have! 😍.

I was extremely happy with the way this tote came out! It was a gift for my niece who graduated from nursing school. She is now an RN. 👩‍⚕️ She was so excited when she received it. I knew it was just perfect for her.

Thank you so much for the beautiful detailed work. It is perfect!!! 👌.

Love, love, love them! Perfect size, they look great and very functional. Only one gripe is limited colour- blue and pink, but other than that they are fantastic. Planning to get at least another couple!!!.

Looked small, but fits a lot of equipment, very happy with this item

Compact but enough space for my needs. Love it

Recently I purchased a Women’s Essential Tote bag in Mallard Green for my wife as a gift. It was our first purchase from Rothy’s and may not be our last – she really loves using it every day and we both are impressed by the quality of construction and clean, modern style.

She’s in love with the colors! She ironed out the shipping folds as instructed on the tag, and she loves how the bag stands upright by itself when placed on a surface. I think, functionally, a built-in water bottle strap on the inside would be a great addition since the interior volume of the bag is generous.

However, I feel I need to voice my constructive criticism concerning the packaging. Upon arrival, two of the box corners (short vertical edges) were torn open, so much so that a person could easily probe their finger inside the box and feel the fabric of the bag.

To discover the packaging is only just enough to survive the mail delivery transit process – considering the price of the bag – to me, is unacceptable. The bag was untouched, thankfully. Please consider redesigning your packaging for stronger reinforcement and adding another layer of protection between the bag itself and the outside box.

So far I am loving this bag. I busted the seams on my last Patricia Nash tote bag because I just need to bring too much stuff to work. This bag is sturdy! I take my iPad Pro, shoes, lunch, gym clothes, organizing pouches, water bottle, and the Rothy’s Belt purse everyday.

It stands upright whether packed full or not. It’s comfortable on the shoulder. I love that it can be zipped and slim when it’s not fully loaded. I bought the belt purse as well to throw in it, and loving that too.

I did buy Lily Jade zip pouch organizers, which are slim, and Thread slim wallets. My only wish is for one more pocket on the inside or outside for the phone. I keep the inside pocket clear for quick access things – AirPods, a pen, an emergency mini flashlight, or the thread wallets.

All my other odds and ends are in the Lily Jade organizers. I have already gotten so many compliments on the color.

I have several pairs of Rothy’s shoes and absolutely love them! I purchased the Ink and Ivory clutch in November and received gift cards so I could purchase the matching essential tote. When it arrived, I was so excited and could not wait to use it! The tote is a bit heavier than I expected (without contents) so when I add the laptop, planner, make up bag, wallet, phone, and keys, it is even heavier! The clutch holds my wallet, phone, and keys, which makes It so convenient.

Although the small zippered pocket in the tote is nice to hold my phone (if it isnt in the clutch), I do wish there was a key-ring strap attached somewhere in the interior for no-lost and easier access to keys.

(I am an educator and keep my work keys separate from my car/house keys. ) Of course, I love that the bag can be laundered. This purchase came with a dust bag and a laundry bag. The fact that it can be washed makes it worth every penny!.

Originally I bought this tote as a travel bag and for that it will work great. However, I have not owned a purse for a decade, using a fanny pack. I tried out the tote as a purse and I find it perfect- especially with the organizer that you can buy separately.

It’s beautiful, and even though I am petite its not too big. I love how it fits on my shoulder. I also think the small purse that goes with it is a wonderful addition. It fits my smart phone and keys and a small wallet.

I can leave my tote in the car and just take the small purse when appropriate. It also fits on my shoulder. One thing I would change is make it an option to be able to make the small purse a crossover with an additional strap.

Initially I was disappointed in the Cognac color. My computer screen makes it look like a rich golden brown. That is not the case- it is a subdued tannish brown. However, overall the tote is well made and as stated above beautiful.

Highly recommend.
