Operation Happy Nurse is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization founded by former NICU nurse Shannon McPeek. Early in her nursing career, Shannon began waking up each day with chest pain. What started as anxiety gradually progressed into OCD, emotional numbness, and burnout.

Out of this lived experience, Operation Happy Nurse was born.

Operation Happy Nurse exists to create a supportive community for nurses at every stage—students, new graduates, and seasoned professionals alike. We are here to uplift, support, and remind nurses that their well-being matters just as much as the care they provide to others.

Our mission: to help nurses cope with the stress, anxiety, and pressure that come with the profession.
