Nurses encounter a level of intense daily stress that most of us will never experience. They've seen and done it all, from dealing with unruly patients to comforting families who are dealing with heartbreaking losses. And this has been more true than ever over the past few years.
Whether you have a nurse who has been tending to your health or a nursing student in the family, any one of these best gifts for nurses will provide them with inspiration, relaxation and most importantly, appreciation for all that they do every day.
When browsing through, think about where they are in their career, and which gifts will help them the most. We've got presents for every nurse — male, female, graduates and 20-year veterans.
There's a mix here of nurse-themed ideas that really speak to their profession, as well as top-selling items our readers are loving, so you're sure to find something that fits the bill. They will work for any occasion too, including the holidays, birthdays, Mother's Day, retirement or as a “thank you” present.

Help her stay motivated with an adorable keychain that has a sweet message. It's a sweet and inexpensive way to thank her for taking care of you.

Making sure they're hydrated is key to their success. Help them out with this leakproof tumbler, that can be personalized with their name and favorite color.
When on the move, they can keep all their essentials in one place. And unlike other belt bags, this one has an extended, adjustable strap that helps it fit a variety of body types, and lets you wear it in different ways.
Nursing requires, well, a lot of tools. This printed carrying case will hold everything they need, including the stethoscope, in style.
After a long day, they will look forward to coming home to this top-rated massager. It has three speeds, and can be used on their back, neck and shoulders.
With all their hands do during each shift, it's easy for them to get dry and cracked, but this gift set can take care of that. There are five of the brand's top-selling items here, including the repair cream and ointment that is a lifesaver.
Hoka walking sneakers have made a splash over the past few years, thanks to their lightweight feel and sturdy construction.

Available in so many different colors, after she washes the day off of her, she can jump into this cozy set that features a loose fitting top and elastic waist.
