Learning to be a nurse requires long hours of study, dedication, exhausting clinicals and a grueling exam. Just as graduating doctors celebrate their new status with a white coat ceremony, successful graduate nurses are welcomed into their new profession with a Pinning Ceremony.

The occasion takes place at the nursing school when graduate students are given a pin by the faculty head during a ceremony which may also include lighting a candle in honor of Florence Nightingale. Pins vary in design, but all designs represent the school. Scholars believe the origins of this symbolic welcoming may date the medieval times.

Greeting Card Universe salutes the nurses who work hard every day to care for their patients with Congratulations/  raduation— Nursing Pinning Ceremony cards in a variety of designs created especially for this special day.

What Are Happy Customers Saying About Greeting Card Universe?
“I absolutely love Greeting Card Universe. Is the only site that I purchase my cards. I do not even go to card stores anymore. All my cards are from Greeting Card Universe. You can find everything and anything. Discovered it at Christmastime when I had a lot of cards to get. All cards were in mint condition and the ability to make them more personal is special.” – Thelma, April 1, 2-14
