Nursing Graduation Party Help

Published

Hey! I'm throwing a grad party for my sister who's graduating in June as an RN. Looking for any ideas and advice. I'm planning on renting a pavilion at a park. I was thinking of doing red and white colors like the old school nursing hats. Besides a cake, I thought it'd be fun to do red syringe jello shots. What about food? I know food is normally served at HS grad parties but what about college ones? Other decor? Do I throw the party immediately after she graduates (pending pandemic status) or after passing the board exam? What did you have or have you seen at other college grad parties? I'm open to anything!

Thanks! ❤️

Honestly I would just wait and see what is happening. Not worth organizing anything is things are still in the current crisis

Buy your sister a good quality stetoscope (Littman's is one suggestion) with personalization, a cute nurse's tote bag and let her choose two pairs of the highest quality walking (not running) sport shoes you guys can afford. It doesn't sound as so much fun but your sister will thank you from all of her heart and for a long time.

The Littman Cardiac scope is the BOMB. Also if she's ever tried on a pair of Dasnko or Allegria, consider those but only if she's been able to try them on. Then when she's been at her job six months, throw her a party.
