About Us

The Proud Nurses Coalition™ is an organization built by Registered Nurses for Registered Nurses and the people who appreciate them.

We deliver products that empower nurses like our popular "Nures Are Swell" ultra soft zip hoody. We recognize that Nurses are on the frontlines of care, and in 2018 nurses were rated the most trusted professionals in the United States.*

Forbes Chart

Nurses make up the largest segment of healthcare workers and make daily sacrifices in body, mind and soul to provide the highest level of care to others. With all of that said they still do not get the recognition they truly deserve.

Unlike firefighters, police officers and other public service professionals, the majority of nurses work behind closed doors which does not allow the community to see their commitment to providing our loved ones protection and care on a daily basis.

It is because of this that we are driven and dedicated to providing people with constant reminders of the nurses in this world, thereby nurturing a feeling of hope and a sense of community.

Katie Loggins
Founder
Katie Loggins is a Registered Nurse born and raised in Santa Cruz California. She received her Masters in Nursing as a Clinical Nurse Specialist from San Francisco State University in 2010.

She currently works as a Telemetry Care hospital nurse, and is a member of her hospital’s Unit Based Counsel (UBC) which functions to provide improvements and institute best practices to her unit.

Katie will tell you that nursing school and obtaining her masters degree was one of the biggest challenges of her life. The dedication and determination it required to succeed helped build the emotional and psychological foundation it takes to be a nurse. This accomplishment contributed to the immense sense of pride she has for herself, her co-workers and her profession. She believes in the power of lifting people up and reminding them of their worth.

Katie also personally drew both the "Nurses Are Swell" sweatshrt art and the newer "CalifoRNia Strong" Yosemite Nurse sweatshirt in hope of giving nurses something to enjoy wearing while empowering these strong hardworking individuals.
