"Nurse Jackie" to end after season 7

"Nurse Jackie" is about to get discharged.

Showtime announced Wednesday that the series' upcoming seventh season will be its last.

"#NurseJackie is working one last shift!" the network tweeted. "Join us in celebrating and bidding farewell to the 7th and FINAL season in 2015."

The series, which premiered in 2009, has become one of Showtime's signature shows, garnering critical acclaim as well as several Emmy Awards, a Humanitas Prize, an AFI Award for Outstanding Television Program and several Prism Awards for its depiction of substance abuse. Its star, Edie Falco, has also become the only actress to ever win the lead acting Emmy in both the comedy ("Nurse Jackie") and drama ("The Sopranos") categories.

"Edie is one of our finest actresses," Showtime president David Nevins said in Wednesday's announcement. "We are so honored to have had her on the network. She creates indelible characters and Nurse Jackie Peyton is no exception. I know this final season will bring her story to a close that will satisfy the ever-growing number of loyal viewers who have been entranced and, at times, appalled by Jackie through the years. I want to thank Edie, the incredible cast of 'Nurse Jackie' and Clyde Phillips and Richie Jackson who have led the show to the success that it is today."

Season 7, premiering in 2015, will also feature Tony Shalhoub ("Monk") in a guest-starring role.
