HONOR GUARD CEREMONY

Every nurse deserves
to be honored.

Across the country, Nurse Honor Guards help ensure that no nurse completes their earthly nursing journey without receiving the honor they have earned through a lifetime of service.

I.

Honor

Recognizing a lifetime of compassionate nursing service.

II.

Tradition

Preserving one of nursing's most meaningful traditions.

III.

Presence

Standing beside families when their nurse's journey comes to an end.

It is a calling.

Whether you’re an active nurse, retired nurse, LPN, RN, NP, or other Advanced Practice Nurse, your presence can make a difference. Members participate in as many or as few services and activities as they choose.

" Together, we can ensure that no nurse leaves this world without being recognized by their colleagues."
