How to Choose a Gift for a Nurse
Think about the shift. Nurses spend hours on their feet with a badge, a pen and a drink always nearby. Badge reels, clipboards and tumblers are useful all year.
Go for a laugh. Nurse humor like "Don't be tachy" lands well with coworkers and makes a great Secret Santa pick.
Mark the milestone. A first year, a new unit or retirement deserves a keepsake with the year on it. Ornaments with the year printed on them become a yearly reminder of how far they've come, and a journal gives a new nurse somewhere to write down the shifts they never want to forget.
