BMCU nursing students receive white coats before clinical practice

Blue Mountain Christian University nursing students received their white coats at a ceremony marking the next step in their training, according to the university.

The students are preparing to begin clinical practice in the coming days. During the ceremony, they were reminded that their work involves not only learning to treat patients but also caring for them through what the university described as “God's hands, God's eyes, and God's heart.”
