According to Wikipedia, fanny packs are considered unfashionable by most people and invoke the stereotypical visual of a displaced tourist known around the world. While I am NOT advocating a return to the 70s, wearing a fanny pack, or something similar, is a reasonable option to keep track of personal items while working in the ER, OR, wards, or clinic at Hopital Adventiste d'Haiti.
In mine I kept my passport, wallet, scissors, hand sanitizer, small camera, pen and pad, headlamp, and spare examining gloves. In spite of the fact that I took heat from the residents for wearing one, I figure that if it's good enough for the Hulk, it's good enough for me.
Another option is a small backpack however that brings with it accessibility issues and I'm sure that I'd leave mine lying around someplace after I had taken it off. Your mileage may vary.
