The symbolic “Blessing of the Hands" is part of the White Coat Ceremony that welcomes students in Kent State’s College of Nursing into the next phase of their educational sequence, which includes clinical rotations in area hospitals.

One of the key messages in the ceremony is that compassionate care must be the hallmark of their clinical practice.
