Nursing Grad Party Help

Nurse2B2005 · May 18, 2005

Hey everyone! I am planning a big grad party for my best friend who graduated from nursing school this year! One year before me!
What I am asking for are ideas for a medical/nurse themed party, such as decorations, food all that jazz...
Your ideas are much appreciated! Let me know of any thoughts you have!
Thanks!

Nursing is my second career choice. When I left my old career, everyone at work threw me a party. They decorated one of the conference rooms with Bio Bags, medical waste streamers - I think they said caution or something like that on it, they served chips out of the wash basins, smaller type snacks out of emesis basins, sodas/juice out of the patient water pitchers. I think I remember that they even took a bunch of empty syringes and made a centerpiece out of them, and I also recall that they got me a plain cake and used some of the syringes as decorations for the cake too. I don't have a clue as to where they obtained all these supplies since no one I knew there worked in the medical profession, but it was a cute idea.

Have fun planning it!

I've seen urinals for the guest of honor' drink with a straw, dip in a bedpan, chips in a bedpan, just use your imagination and have fun.

Be careful with the alcohol consumption at your party.....Ive seen a few, and heard of many nurses getting DUI's driving home from their graduation party.........Not a good time to get careless after all the time and commitment to get to having this party in the first place.
