Here’s Where to Score the Best Discounts, Deals, and Freebies for National Nurses Week

National Nurses Week is here—the annual celebration that’s dedicated to recognizing nurses and the heroic work they do every day. This year, the special week falls from Wednesday, May 6 until Tuesday, May 12, and it’s the perfect opportunity to thank the nurses in our lives (by treating them to the best gifts for nurses, of course). But it’s also a great time for healthcare workers themselves to score exclusive discounts, freebies, and more at their favorite retailers and brands.

That’s right: Many businesses offer exclusive discounts during National Nurses Week as a way to thank healthcare heroes for their work and service, which means nurses can score great deals on everything from health and beauty essentials to popular apparel and gear. That includes discounts on scrubs (psst: FIGS typically offers 20% off every year!), compression socks, and some of the best shoes for nurses like Hoka, Brooks, and Skechers—in addition to other must-have essentials, like tumblers from Stanley and Yeti to keep you hydrated during long shifts. There’s also plenty of food deals to help nurses fuel up—from discounts on meal services (including Hello Fresh and Factor Meals) to exclusive freebies at your favorite food chains only during National Nurses Week (we spotted deals at Shake Shack, Chipotle, and more!).

Ahead, we dug up all the best National Nurses Week 2026 deals to score this year. Most of these deals extend to all healthcare workers (some even apply to military members, teachers, and first responders), and many are even discount programs that are offered year-round—not just during National Nurses Week. Just be sure to have your work email or badge handy, as most brands verify eligibility to qualify for savings.
