History of the Black Band
The black band has long been the symbol of the nursing profession,
representing the compassion, commitment, and competence integral
to our profession; recognizing the pioneering work of Florence
Nightingale. I hope this black band traditionally displayed on the
nursing cap will serve as a recognizable symbol of the nursing
profession to our clients, co-workers, and the public at large. A
historic symbol to proudly wear celebrating our heritage and moving
it into the future.
