When hardship strikes, it is especially difficult for those of us accustomed to giving care to seek support from others. To help nurses in need, Nurses House extends short term financial assistance to registered nurses in difficulty as a result of injury, illness or disability.

By providing anonymous help, Nurses House is there to ease the financial strains that accompany misfortune. Thousands of nurses in all 50 states have been aided by Nurses House since 1922.

Getting Help
Nurses House began as a respite facility in New York. In 1959 this shelter was sold to create a national fund to assist nurses facing great personal adversity to maintain dignity and self-esteem while recovering from their problems.
