Gift for male preceptor

Nursing Students General Students

I'm going to be finishing my final clinical rotation next week and wanted to give my preceptor a small gift and a thank you card. Problem is, I have no clue what to get him. Obviously flowery baskets from bath and body works, etc are out because he's a guy. The only thing I can think of is a gift card to McDonalds (he stops by there EVERY morning for a cup of coffee)....it seems so impersonal to me, but would it be okay? He is also in the military and does triathlons.

Also, there is another nurse on the floor who picked me up for a day when my preceptor called in sick. Would it be appropriate for me to get her a small gift and a thank you card? Just a thank you card?

Any advice would be appreciated!

Unless, of course, you want to get some sneaky "pt education" in, in which case I'd avoid McD's and find something healthier. ;)
