May 6 marks the beginning of National Nurses Week 2023, a time to celebrate nurses. For those looking for a way to show appreciation to a special nurse in their lives, consider buying a gift that any nurse would be happy to receive.
Here is a quick breakdown of some of the best gifts for nurses to celebrate National Nurses Week 2023.
Scrubs
Nurses are almost always in need of new scrubs, and there are some really great ones on the market. One of the most highly rated scrubs for nurses come from the Figs product line. It’s a direct-to-consumer apparel brand that is often pricier than its competitors, but trendy and well received all the same. For nurses looking for comfort during those daunting 12-hour shifts, Jannuu offers a wide range of scrubs that look as good as they feel.
Shoes
Nurses spend an incredible amount of time on their feet, and that means comfort is a must when on the job. One of the most well-rated brands of shoes for nurses is, once again, Figs. The apparel company’s New Balance 996 Unisex made quite the splash in 2022 for high marks in comfort, quality, support, durability, style and affordability.
Asics’ Novablast shoes are also well received among nurses, and they are water resistant.
Books
There are a number of good reads that are perfect for that nurse in your life. At the top of the list is Christie Watson’s “The Language of Kindness: A Nurse’s Story.” The memoir details the author’s career in nursing and the importance of kindness in health care.
For nurses looking for something a little more relaxing, there is the “Nurse Coloring Book: Sweary Midnight Edition.” Filled with 40 hilarious swear word designs, this adult coloring book offers a fun distraction from everyday stress.
Self-care relaxers
Sometimes, rather than equipment for the job, all a nurse needs a little relaxation. Nurse.org lauded the MIKO Foot Massager Machine as an excellent gift for nurses with aching feet from all of those long shifts.
To relax sore necks and shoulders, consider purchasing the Shiatsu Back Shoulder and Neck Massager for deep tissue stress relief.
