It doesn't matter which country you visit, nurses are extremely underpaid compared to doctors and, sometimes, even more overworked.

You have to be a strong, capable, passionate individual to be a good nurse. You've got to care about your patients and people as a whole, wanting to do all you can to help them recover.

Nurses do /everything/ around the hospital and practices. They clean up, they're there for comfort, they do diagnostic tests and vitals, and they are 100% heroes.

They basically deserve the world. Or some chocolates. Or if you can't get your hands on either of those things—pretty sure the world would be hard to get—why not get them a gift nobody else has?

Like one of these funny and awesome nurse shirts, perhaps?
