About the Nurses Lounge

What is the Nurses Lounge?


The Nurses Lounge is a professional/social network dedicated to the Nursing Profession and designed to simplify and increase direct communications between nurses and nurse organizations such as nursing schools, nurse associations and nurse employers.


How does the Nurses Lounge work?


Organizations such as nursing schools, nurse associations and nurse employers create groups called Lounges. Nurses can then join their organization's Lounges and receive instant email updates on news, events and other relevant information.

Additionally, there are 75 Metro/State Lounges that allow you to get the latest updates on local news, meetings, CE events, jobs, etc. as well as create professional connections with local colleagues.


When was Nurses Lounge formed?

Nurses Lounge was first created as a local direct mail piece for nurses in 2003 and has now evolved into a professional network and resource for nurses across the country.


How much does the Nurses Lounge cost?

Nurses Lounge is a completely FREE service for individual nurses, nurse associations and nursing schools. For-profit organizations and nurse employers pay a small annual fee based on size of metro population where they are located ranging from $295 to $995 a year.

Who can post and see content in my Lounge?


Lounge owners can decide who can post content in Lounges and how visible they can be. Generally Lounge administrators and moderators that are pre-designated by the owner are the only ones who can post content such as news and events, but all Lounge members can create discussions.

Lounges and/or their content can either be visible to members of that Lounge only or they can be visible for the entire community to see. Only Lounge members will receive email updates though.
