10 Best Nurses Week Memes That Will Make You LOL


We’ve all spent countless hours mindlessly scrolling through Instagram, Facebook, and even TikTok and have seen some amazing and hilarious memes. They brighten our moods, make us laugh, and shed light on current topics in nursing. And honestly, sometimes they are exactly what we are thinking, but in picture form!
Nurses Week is quickly approaching, from May 6th to May 12th, so Nurse.org has compiled a list of the most memorable and relatable Nurses Week memes.
What are you getting for Nurses Week? Or hoping to get? A nice pen or maybe another T-shirt? Maybe management should ask us what their staff wants or needs.
Have you become the go-to person in your circle of friends or family for medical advice? Do they think you have all the answers and can somehow prescribe medications and order labs? Don’t worry - things never change.
ICU and ER nurses, raise your hands! Is there a record of how many times a lunch can be reheated? At what point do you just eat the food cold?
Trauma nurses - ya feel this! With the increasing popularity of social media and social media influencers, the need to film everything causes patients to ignore common sense and safety. More broken bones. More head injuries. All equal more patients.
Sedated patients might be the best patients. At least from an ICU or OR nurse's perspective. Have a patient pushing the call bell a little too much - look over your PRNs. Maybe a little something would help take the edge off!
Florence Nightingale, the founder of modern-day nursing and the reason we celebrate Nurses Week, couldn’t have said it better. This assignment is crap! Safe staffing? Nurse-patient ratios - throw it all out the window.
Have you ever skipped out on saying goodbye to your patient because you just know they will need help going to the bathroom, ordering food, or want to speak to their doctor? Raise your hand high!
We’ve all given report to that nurse. Let’s be honest. The nurse who wants to know the Apgars and gestational age of a 4-year-old asthmatic patient.
How often does a nurse have time to sit down? Let alone use the bathroom! If you did have time to sit down to chart, the call bell would immediately be going off. And can we talk about the long white sleeve shirt under the scrub top? Management would have a field day with this!
ICU nurses - ya feel me! The clock hits 7:00, and you give a HUGE sigh of relief. The feeling of success, at least for 12 hours!
