Here are the best gifts for nurses.

Self-Care

Nursing is a tough job that is hard on the body and the spirit. Look for a gift that will encourage the nurse in question to indulge in some self-care. That could mean anything from luxury bath salts to a foot massager or a weighted blanket.

Anti-Stress

It can be hard for nurses to leave work behind at the end of the day. Offer them something that will distract them after work, like a set of coloring books, a puzzle, or a meditation app. Or gift them something that will help them get a good night’s sleep, like a silk eye mask, a lavender-scented candle, or a white noise machine.
