Opening Only What Is Needed
Captions available
The idea
Supplies that may or may not be used are pulled into the room but left unopened until they are needed.
In practice
Preference cards often separate items opened before the case from items kept unopened unless needed, which reduces waste and processing.
Where people slip
Anything opened onto the field must be counted or accounted for, so opening extra adds work at the end.

Every lesson rests on earlier ones and opens later ones. Tap any to jump.
