What Did You Get For Nurses Week?

Published

I have been MIA from allnurses for a long time so I decided to start a topic...I just received my "nurses week" gift from my management team at the hospital were I work. Last year we got a pen and this year we got one of those tall aluminum bottles that keeps your drinks cold/hot, with the hospital logo on it!! Yay! *sacrasm over* At least we got a useable gift.

Curious on what other facilities have done or currently doing for their staff for nurses week. Please share.

Food..food and more food, lolz.

10% off our school/hospital merchandise store...... Not only do I NOT want to buy hospital merchandise for my day-to-day wear, but 10% is pretty terrible discount, AND the discount applied to all hospital employees.

I work the night shift and we got ice cream sandwhiches (one each) in the middle of the night.

We got an email from the nurse manager. He wrote it himself, and didn't get his secretary to write it and cc it with his blessings. Pretty impressive. Also there's a sign on the lawn that says Happy Nurses' Week.

We got a mediocre umbrella that I haven't opened or used yet but I'm sure one gust of wind will destroy it. =|
