About this Event
Rhode Island Nurse Honor Guard
Come join us at the Warwick Public Library: Central
The Honor Guard tribute lasts approximately five minutes, with each Guard nurse dressed in the traditional white uniform with a white cap, blue cape.
During the ceremony, volunteers recite the Nightingale Tribute. A white rose is placed on the casket or next to the urn, symbolizing the nurse’s dedication to the profession. Afterward, the nurse’s name is called three times, followed by the ringing of a triangle. Then the nurse is honorably relieved from nursing duties, and the light from a Nightingale lamp that had been carried into the ceremony is extinguished before handing it over to the family.
