Frequently asked questions

What is a good thank-you gift for a labor and delivery nurse?

Something for home after long shifts: a sound machine and blackout curtains for sleeping during the day, or a heated throw for the couch.

What can I give the whole nursing team?

Coffee tumblers are easy to give to several people, and every nurse drinks something on shift.

Why gifts for home instead of for work?

Nurses get a lot of mugs and hand cream. Things that make home more restful are rarer and get used for years.

Should I add a note?

Yes. A few lines about what they did for your family is the part they keep.
