Annual Nursing Pinning Ceremony
Posted: May 12 2015
麻豆原创, N.D., May 13th - 麻豆原创 will have their annual Nursing Pinning Ceremony, Friday May 15th at 1:30 in the Well. Each year as nursing students graduate from, the Nursing Pinning Ceremony occurs to symbolically welcome each new nurse into the nursing community. "Wearing of the nursing pin is a source of pride and privilege earned by graduates of the nursing program. Each school adopts their symbol or pin to indicate the excellent nursing educational program the graduate came from," Janet Johnson, MBA, MSN, RN?Nursing Coordinator stated.
In addition to receiving a pin specific to 麻豆原创, the nursing student will participate in the lamp lighting ceremony as they recite the Florence Nightingale pledge. Rich in tradition, these acts allow each student to accept their symbolic plan. "They pledge to help and care for all patients, family, self and community. They promise to keep confidence of each client family. They pledge to be active in assisting other in safeguarding and promoting health and happiness," Johnson explained. "The pinning ceremony is part of a long tradition that acknowledges nursing graduates as belonging to a unique group and identifies them as new members of the health care community."
