It’s finally here – Nurses’ Week 2015!

If you can’t tell, I love Nurses’ Week!

I love to have a week to reflect and celebrate nursing. Sure, we should celebrate nursing everyday, every week. But, being nurses, we don’t like a lot of spot light on ourselves. We take care of our patients; it’s what we do. And we do it well – the Gallup poll reports again that nurses are still the most trusted profession!

If you’d like to learn more about the history of nursing, check out this article. You might be surprised, it hasn’t been around as long as you might think…

So, in honor of Nurses Week, many of you will be getting your token gift from your employer – maybe a mug, a pen or if your lucky, a free meal in the cafeteria that you never get to go eat at because you are so busy! (And recently I heard some employers have got rid of Nurses’ Week altogether, in exchange of “Hospital Week” – whatever!)

Well, I have some good news – in exchange for being my awesome readers and super awesome nurses, I have rounded up some spectacular gifts to give you all!! They are things nurses want and some are from companies who are made by nurses! Bonus!!

So without further ado – here’s what I am going to giveaway to my awesome nurse peeps!

These are easily the BEST nurses socks! I was late to the whole compression sock scene, and I regret waiting so long! These were created by an ICU nurse and you can’t beat the great designs!! Three lucky winners will get to treat their legs with love with their own pair of Nabee Socks!

Tired of wearing you stethoscope around you neck? Not only is it painful on you neck after a long shift, but its not good for your stethoscope. The Lotus Stethoscope Holder was invented by a nurse, so she knows the needs of nurses. The Lotus is so versatile – wear it how you like – on your scrubs or even on your bag to carry it with ease. They come in 5 great colors – hot pink, white, navy blue, light green and black. And FOUR lucky winners are going to get one – yahoo!!

If you’ve been around the nursing social media / web world – you likely have come across Kati Kleber – better known as Nurse Eye Roll! Last year she put together all her straight talk, encouraging advice in Becoming Nursey: From Code Blues to Code Browns, How to Care for Your Patients and Yourself. She continues her love for nursing by giving away an autographed copy to one fabulous nurse!

A few months ago, I had the honor of reading this fantastic book From Frustrated to Fulfilled: The Empowered Nurses’ System. It is unparallelled advice from a very diverse set of nurses, edited by Lorie Brown, RN, MN, JD. She discusses her route to becoming an attorney after finding herself very frustrated. She shares her journey to fulfillment along with other nursing experts. She has graciously donated one free copy for one of my readers. After reading this book, you will have a set of tools to tackle your next shift
Many nurses fret about “being sued” and more importantly, loosing their precious license. But Lorie Brown, RN, MN, JD has some words of wisdom for you in Law and Order for Nurses: The Easy Way to Protect Your License and Your Livelihood. She shares her stories and experience in protecting nurses as they fought to protect their most valuable asset, their license. She is giving away one free copy of this valuable book!!

Uniform Advantage is celebrating 30 years providing scrubs, shoes and all things that nurses would need to make it through a shift. The strive to provide the best selection of scrubs and nursing uniforms at prices that can’t be beat, including their own exclusive brand – UA Scrubs – which includes Butter Soft scrubs – and they ARE butter soft! So, to celebrate their love for nurses, they are giving a $50 e-gift card to one lucky reader!!

If you are looking for some cool things to make your day better- pocket cards, reference books, tools of the trade or the very Whitecoat Clipboards – MD Pocket has what you need! Since 2005, they have been publishing professional academic books and reference guides with the emphasis on educating all healthcare professionals. In fact, you can even have their pocket books customized for your needs. To show their support for nurses, they are giving away a basket of nurse goodies to one lucky reader!! Goodies include the following items for a total value of over $100!!

What could feel better after a long shift, than a nice heat pack to the lower back or neck! These unique heat / cool therapy pads are made from cherry pits and can be found at Nurse Born Products. The cherry pits are from a pitting factory in the USA and are sanitized before used for the therapy pads. They can be warmed in the microwave or placed in the freezer – what ever your needs. One lucky reader will get a beautifully wrapped Cherry Tree European Style Heat Therapy Pad to snuggle up with after a long shift!!
