Nursing Cap

Published

Just curious, do nursing schools still have special caps associated with them? Does anyone know what the local caps looke like?

Go to your school's library and look at the old yearbooks to see what the cap looked like. Then you might be able to find one just like it at Kay's Caps. My school's caps looked almost like the one on the far right.

:) It's interesting to see how many schools use this rather unusual type cap. Idabelle Firestone School was Akron City Hospital's program.

Our school's was similar to the one on the left, except the cuff came to a small point in the center.

I am graduating in two weeks and we have a cap. We get to wear the white dress too. I know some people don't like the whole get up but I am really going to feel proud to wear it.

I'm very happy for you! Hope you really enjoy your graduation! You have a lot to be proud of.
