Nurses Week 2026 Freebies & Discounts

Each year, there are a TON of freebies and discounts available for Nurses, Healthcare Workers, Frontline workers, essential employees, and more.   Nurses Week for 2026 is May 6 – 12, and we are starting to spot some offers starting to renew for this year.

*Fun Fact* –National Nurses Week is celebrated from May 6th to May 12th each year because May 12th is Florence Nightingale’s birthday, and May 6th is considered National Nurses Day. Florence Nightingale is widely regarded as the founder of modern nursing.

Be sure to let a friend know about these – it’s a great way to show your appreciation and say “Happy Nurses Week!”
