She's 31 and graduating next week. She's going to be a nurse in the prenatal unit. She likes to go to the gym, and other than that, she just works really hard. Any ideas?

a nice warm cozy pair of pj's and slippers, and a bath set so she can relax from her hard day's work.

I'm not a nurse, but I would think a nice gift would be something that she doesn't already have, but could use in her nursing on a regular basis. I suspect she already has a stethoscope, but if not, that would be an obvious choice. I'd say talk to another nurse that you know and ask her what she would have liked to receive.

This might sound a little silly, but in prenatal, everyone is excited about the babies coming. They like to see happy childlike things. Buying her one of the uniform tops with a cute child friendly design or a little clip-on animal is a fun idea.

How about a leather bound agenda/datebook/address book combo, so she can keep her schedule, checkbook, miscelaneous stuff all in one place? I'm sure in the beginning it might be difficult for her to adjust if she has a rotating schedule or works at night- so having a pretty leather thingy would be durable and practical too.
And gift cards can be GOOOOD- they allow a person to get exactly what they want, provided you get one from a store that they acutually like to shop at.

I like what the other person said about PJ's and slippers and bath stuff. Every nurse wants to relax after being on her feet all day. A pedicure would be great too.

the terrific element of supply is something that they are able to apply. once I graduated severe college, human beings gave me those sentimental books and that they are all packed in a container and that i haven't touched them when you consider that. the terrific supplies I have been given have been the dishes and cups and a shower to bathe them in, or the money I used to purchase my first pc, or the handle container crammed with college components like pencils and staples and submit-its that I nevertheless use 8 years after graduating.

a really nice stethoscope is a great gift. Uniforms and/or nursing shoes are great ideas as well.

What about a nice stethoscope? Or even a set of scrubs that they wear as uniforms at the hospital today? If you know what size she wears I'm sure she would appreciate that.

Nurses are always bit-ching about not having enough money!! Guess you could buy something she normally spends her money on, maybe uniforms, comfortable custom made shoes, industrial strength-steel reinforced bras. Why the hell would you ask a question like that here when no one knows your friend and you don't want to give the obviously useful things??
