Shout out to all the amazing nurses out there! We owe them every day, but National Nurses Week and National Nurses Day give us a chance to really show our appreciation. During this once-a-year time of recognition, these essential healthcare heroes get extra love with discounts, freebies, and special healthcare worker deals.

While there are lots of year-round discounts for nurses, the best perks happen every year from May 6 - 12, with deals like free menu items at TGI Fridays, and free BIG Tea at McAlister's Deli. If you’re a nurse, just show your work ID to get in on the savings.

For many of the deals, you'll need to verify your eligibility through third-party sites like SheerID, ID.me, and GovX.com.
