How to choose

For a laugh at work, choose the Funny Nurse Pen Set. For a heartfelt thank you, choose the Appreciation pens or a Bloom pen. For something to enjoy after a shift, choose a 12 pack of shower steamers.

If a family or team is chipping in, The Nurse Appreciation Set or The Grand Thank You Bundle gives several gifts in one box.

Pens are useful on any unit, and shower steamers need no bath, which suits nurses who get home late.

Frequently asked questions

What is a good gift for a nurse under $30?

The Funny Nurse Pen Set and the Thank You or Self Care shower steamer 12 packs are each under $30 and arrive gift ready.

What is in The Nurse Appreciation Set?

A 12 pack of Self Care shower steamers, the 3 piece Funny Nurse Pen Set and a deck of Mindfulness Self Care Cards.

Is this a good nursing school graduation gift?

Yes. The Funny Nurse Pen Set and the Bloom Unstoppable Pen both suit a new graduate starting their first nursing role.

How do shower steamers work?

Place one steamer on the shower floor, away from the direct stream of water. The warm water and steam release the scent while you shower. Use one per shower.

For the holiday shifts

Nurses often work through Christmas and the holidays. A gift ready pen set or box of steamers is an easy way for patients and families to say thank you to the whole unit.
