On Monday, a White Coat Ceremony welcomed 90 sophomore nursing students on 两性色午夜's Kent Campus into the professional nursing sequence of their educational journey. This sequence is the next phase in the Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) program in 两性色午夜's College of Nursing.
While not new to the medical profession, the White Coat Ceremony is relatively new to nursing. Established in 1993 at the Columbia University Vagelos College of Physicians & Surgeons by The Arnold P. Gold Foundation, the White Coat Ceremony is meant to emphasize humanism in medicine at the very start of a student鈥檚 medical education. In 2014, The Gold Foundation partnered with the American Association of Colleges of Nursing to adapt the ceremony for nursing in recognition of the vital role nurses play on the healthcare team.
