Awards were presented to outstanding practical nursing students. Alesondria Scales was presented both the Academic Award and the Nightingale Award. Holly Carr was awarded the Perfect Attendance Award.
During the ceremony, students recited the Nightingale Pledge, a statement of the ethics and principles of the nursing profession.
