8月21日，十大买球平台自豪地庆祝了一个重要的里程碑，举办了一年一度的护理学院颁奖典礼，表彰13名即将开始职业生涯的护理专业毕业生。 出席典礼的有家人、朋友、教育工作者和大学领导，凸显了社会对这些毕业生的大力支持。

别针仪式是护理界一个受人尊敬的传统，象征着从学生到专业护士的转变。 它的起源可以追溯到19世纪60年代，当时弗洛伦斯·南丁格尔因在克里米亚战争期间的服务而获得了圣乔治红十字会。

“I am incredibly proud of our 2024 nursing graduates. 他们对自己的职业表现出了坚定不移的奉献精神，并在实现教育目标方面表现出了韧性。 尽管他们面临着挑战，但他们仍然致力于他们的项目。 Their persistence is a testament to their strength and passion for nursing,” said Dr. Willie L. Todd Jr., president and CEO of 十大买球平台.

“Our nursing graduates have truly exemplified the caring nature that is at the heart of this profession. 尽管课程要求很高，但他们怀着决心和同情心坚持了下来。 They have gained the knowledge and skills it takes to be a great nurse and are deeply committed to making a difference in the lives of others,” added Karen Myers, dean of nursing at Denmark Tech.

在颁奖典礼上，两名学生因其优异的成绩而受到特别表扬。 Faith Malia Mays被评为最佳全能学生，Randall Gadson被授予学术优秀奖和杰出临床表现奖。

The evening’s highlight was the presentation of pins, followed by the traditional capping, the lighting of the Nightingale Lamps, and the recitation of the Florence Nightingale Pledge. 这一承诺受到希波克拉底誓言的启发，加强了这些新护士在整个职业生涯中坚持道德标准和诚信的承诺。

2024年的护理班包括小克莱顿·迈克尔·科尔文、卡珊德拉·杜利、蒂亚·埃利斯、兰德尔·加德森、汉娜·瑞亚·海托华、德阿里斯·妮可·杰克逊、霍莉·杰克逊、托拉·詹妮尔·杰克逊、蒂安娜·卡德拉·琼斯、莉亚·科瑞塔·凯特·威廉姆斯、费斯·马莉娅·梅斯、塔米卡·莫妮克·詹金斯-辛格利和莎瓦卡·威廉姆斯。

“As we celebrate the achievements of our newest nursing alumni, we look ahead with great excitement and confidence in the future they will help shape. Our graduates are stepping into a world that urgently needs their skills, compassion and dedication,” said Dr. Todd. “At 十大买球平台, we are deeply committed to addressing the critical shortage of nurses, and we are proud to play a role in filling that void. As we look to expand the nursing program, we are dedicated to continuing our tradition of excellence, providing our community with the same high-quality nurses who will go on to make a profound impact wherever they serve.”
