The holiday season is here and it’s time to spoil your colleagues (and make a list for yourself). Nurses definitely deserve some spoiling this year.

AORN nurses compiled a list of 21 holiday gifts nurses will love. Whether it’s self-care, comfort on the job, a good laugh, or treating yourself to fun and inspiration at AORN Global Surgical Conference & Expo 2022, we hope these ideas help with your holiday planning to make sure the perioperative nurses in your life know you appreciate them.

  1. Amp Up Their Fashion

Give warmth and style with these fur-lined leggings.

Find a fun jacket to wear at work like this RN zip-up.

Provide comfort with these shoes designed by nurses.

Keep hair back in style with a ponytail surgical hat.

Customize socks or find fun compression socks (These are perfect for travel to AORN Expo!)

Personalize a watch band.

  1. Give Them an Excuse to Indulge

Make a reservation or gift a gift card to a top New Orleans restaurant to enjoy at AORN Expo.

Choose a fun candle with a sweet message.

Help the unwind with a heated neck massager.

Find a monthly subscription to match any interest. 

Personalize these mini Hershey bars.

  1. Help Jump Start Their Day

A mini coffee maker is always a must, or treat the nurse in your life to a gift card to their favorite coffee spot.

Give your sustainably-minded nurse a personalized travel mug or water bottle that will make their drink stand out (no more mix ups with colleagues!) and keep their drink of choice hot or cold for hours.

  1. Spoil Them On-The-Job

Get stylish goggles to block blue light when charting.

Help everyone stay healthy with a UV Sanitizer to disinfect phones and other small personal devices.

Choose fun pens for quick notes on the run.

Share nurse humor for stress relief.

  1. Help Them Get Ready for After-Work Celebrations

These headbands will hide hat hair when heading out for the day.

Hand hygiene is harsh on nurse hands—make sure their skin stays healthy and hydrated so they stay comfortable during the dry winter season.

  1. Remind Them They are Loved

Spoil with a Healthcare Heroes Thank You Gift Box.

Share the love with a heartbeat necklace.  

Make a donation in their honor to the AORN Foundation. The Foundation will send a note – letting them know you’re thinking of them.
