2025 Nurse Practitioner Gift Guide: The Most Loved & Requested NP Gifts This Year

They show up. Every single day.

For patients, for teams, for families — and somehow, they still find a way to give more.

So when it’s time to celebrate your favorite Nurse Practitioner — whether it’s for NP Week, the holidays, a graduation, or “just because” — they deserve something thoughtful, meaningful, and actually useful.

That’s why I've created the 2025 Nurse Practitioner Gift Guide, curated by NPs for NPs — filled with gifts that make them smile, recharge, and feel truly seen.

Real talk: Do you know what NPs don't need?

Another inspirational mug gathering dust in the back of the cabinet. Another scratchy polyester throw blanket with a stethoscope print. Or... a candle that smells like "stress relief" but does absolutely nothing for actual stress.  

After long charting marathons, excessive coffee, and 10- to 12-hour shifts on our feet, these are the gifts NPs actually love — tested, used, and genuinely appreciated by the people living the scrubs life every day.

And after more than 14 years as an NP, I can tell you what we actually want: things that make those long shifts more bearable, help us recover after back-to-back patients, and genuinely improve our day-to-day lives.  

Here's what real NPs and NP students told me they actually want...

 🩷 A quality stethoscope that doesn't make them second-guess every heart sound.

Many of us are still using that cheap scope from the start of nursing school, wondering if we're missing subtle exam findings because of poor sound quality. A good stethoscope isn't just a tool — it's clinical confidence.  

📱 A portable phone charger that actually keeps up with long clinic days and 12 hour shifts.

Between using clinical apps, dictating notes, and running AI scribes, our phone batteries die by lunch. A high-capacity charger isn't a luxury — it's a necessity. 

🛁 Something that actually helps us decompress. Not a "self-care" platitude, but real tools that provide genuine relaxation after brutal shifts.

So whether you're shopping for an NP in your life (graduation, NP Week, holidays), buying a gift for a preceptor or colleague, or treating yourself (you absolutely deserve it), here's what's actually worth the money.
