The Practical Nurse's Pledge
Before God and those assembled here, I solemnly pledge:
To adhere to the code of ethics of
the nursing profession.
To cooperate faithfully with the other members of the nursing team and to carry
out faithfully
and to the best of my abilities the instructions of the
physicians or the nurse who may be assigned to supervise my work.
I will not do
anything evil or malicious and I will not kinowingly give any
harmful drug or assist in malpractice.
And I pledge myself to do all in
my power to raise the standards and
the prestige of practical nursing.
May my life be devoted to service, and to the high ideals of the nursing profession.
