Nurse’s Week Gifts

Great nurse’s week gift ideas to help boost morale

I love how his confidence gradually fades throughout the video

I felt all of these to the core. We also got glow sticks for night shift because "We light up the night".

I love how he didn’t even try to phone in a motivational line for the 5 dollar bill 😂

My friend (a teacher) to me (an RN): 'Rule of thumb: If they have to have a week to appreciate you, you probably aren't getting paid enough.'

[lottleann]

There's $5, but it's to be split amongst ALL the nurses in the facility

"An umbrella. Because we're with you, rain or shine" - actual gimmick at the hospital I currently work for.

I'm 100% convinced he went into this with no script and no plan. Between each take, he grabs the first item he sees and uses it as a prop.

The first "half" in half-and-half is because the hospital wouldn't be half as good without them, but the second "half" in half-and-half is because the nurses are paid half what they deserve.

I have been a nurse for 30 years. I have gotten things this weak before for Nurses Week. A plastic holder for bandaids. A bag with a granola bar, a baseball cap, dollar store ear buds. A cheap umbrella. This year I did appreciate it when the chaplains came around and did a blessing of our hands. Luckily most nurses are not motivated by the thanks because otherwise there would be no nurses. Blessings to all my fellow nurses. ❤

On behalf of my late mother who was a R.N. for almost 50 years. Finally a Doc who gets the crap nurses have to put up with!🎉

They really should let Jonathan organize the appreciation week gifts.

My favorite was when they gave us pens with blue ink. This was back in the days of paper charting, when all charting had to be done in BLACK INK😅

It is said when giving gifts its always the thought that counts...After 47 years in Nursing this video is the best Nurses Week gift I ever received. Thank you for the thoughtful gift of humor.

[kpeggs]

They would never give a nurse five dollars. This isn’t satire!!

[TheVillainOfTheYear]

We got socks with the hospital logo on the bottom so patients can know who we represent when we jump feet first off the bed tower.

Spot on! As the dinosaur in this group Nurses Week used to be a actual week of activities, fancy lunch, raffles and various gifts. It's down to something ridiculous with the name of the facility/agency emblazoned on it. Happy Nurses 5 minute celebration! Now get back to work!

[teresaarnsby-weaver]

As a former cancer patient I owe my emotional and physical recovery mostly to my nurses and nurse practioners. I am incredibly thankful to them!

I like to think that the backwards text in the powerpoint is actually how it looks.

Back in the day we got $10 in hospital coupons to use at the cafeteria or the gift shop. My husband called them "food stamps".

The gradual progression of him reading the room 😂😂😂
