Financial Literacy for Nurses: 70+ Need-To-Know Freebies and Discount Offers for Nurses…Year Roun

When it’s not National Nurses Week, which companies have the discounts and free offers for nurses and nurse practitioners year-round? 

Well, there’s a pretty large number of companies who show their support for the healthcare profession by way of discounts, often called a  “hero discount”. While the amounts of generosity vary, one thing is clear…if you have to make a purchase, it can really pay off to do a quick check for a nurse discount first. 

Getting Started: Verifying your Nursing License to Shop Deals

Many of the companies providing a nurse discount want to verify your nursing license credentials before your purchase. Most use the program ID.me Shop to verify that you are, in fact, in the nursing profession. 

They have simplified the verification process to make it very simple. If you want these awesome retail discounts the fastest way possible you will need to have your social security number and Nurse/Nurse Practitioner license number ready.

ID.me account registration only takes 2-3 minutes before you’re on your way to shopping pages of money-saving discounts.
