Charlotte Memorial Hospital School of Nursing - Lamp Yearbook (Charlotte, NC)

Text from Pages 1 - 88 of the 1960 volume:

Qfrf] THE 1960 LAMP Charlotte Memorial Hospital School of Nursing Charlotte, North Carolina Every lamp must be lit and every star set to glow. Just so, every per- son must have a life-lighter. Our lamps were lit when we first realized our desire to become nurses. Some- one, somewhere inspired us. As student nurses, we needed encour- agement to fulfill our goal. To the person who trimmed our lamps at first and helped polish them into shining lights our last year; to the one who inspired us to make our star shine bright, to MRS. GRACE NEINAST, a personality to admire, a pattern to follow, and an instructor to love, we the members of the Class of 1960, do dedicate this edition of The Lamp. DEDICATION Page 2 Page 3 THE FLORENCE NIGHTINGALE PLEDGE I solemnly pledge myself before God and in the presence of this assembly to pass my life in purity and to practice my profession faithfully. I will abstain from whatever is deleterious and mischievous and will not take or knowingly administer any harmful drug. I will do all in my power to maintain and elevate the standards of my profession and will hold in confidence all personal matters committed to my keeping and all family affairs coming to my knowledge in the practice of my cal ling. With loyalty will I endeavor to aid the physician in his work and devote myself to the welfare of those committed to my care.

The world, like a tired child beneath her hands Sleeps and is healed. So often her grave eyes have looked on pain and death. That by her will The terrors of the night are held at bay Under her touch our quivering nerves are still And all the thirsty torment of the day Is bearable because her strength is near. Her heart with service as its chosen star Helps us to overcome our sickly fear, And where she is, hope and compassion are; Thus excellently, power and pity blend In Healer, Mother, Comforter, and Friend.

Oh! white capped nurses in dresses of blue, Our great Physician is working in you.
