---Capping and Pinning Ceremonies

Lux Inspirat
Light that Inspires

PROCESSIONAL

A student nurse ascends to a far higher level in his quest of a quality nursing education, where
respect is accorded and responsibility is strongly demanded, as a burning candle is lit, a cap is vested,
and a pin is attached. The road of becoming a nurse is protracted, difficult, and occasionally rocky.
Nursing major can be a very emotional experience all around. Together, they laugh, they weep, and
they tell each other stories. However, they are aware that the nursing profession is exactly what they
were supposed to do in the end. These students will have the chance to significantly improve the lives
of those who are under their care.

To finally kick off our program, let us all acknowledge the presence of our honorable guest
speakers, college President, board of trustees, Administrators, Clinical Instructors, Faculty, Parents and
Friends. Ladies and Gentlemen, I am WILLY C. SARMIENTO and it is an honor for me to welcome
you all to the 18th Capping and Pinning Ceremonies of Pamantasan ng Lungsod ng Marikina – College
of Health Sciences geared with the theme ‘Setting the Heart of Future Nurses Ablaze: To inspire, heal,
and serve to reach triumphant hope’, everyone let us now welcome the PLMar Nursing Student Batch
2025 ‘Lux Inspirat’

BATCH 2025. LUX INSPIRAT

VII. Entrance of Florence Nightingale

She is most well-known for her nursing work during the Crimean War and for helping to improve the
hygienic conditions at military field hospitals. The fact that this remarkable woman loved mathematics,
particularly statistics, and how this love influenced her life’s work is less well recognized.

Everyone, let us all witness, the entrance of The Lady with the Lamp, Florence Nightingale.

VIII. Capping and Pinning Ceremony

The capping, pinning, and candle-lighting ceremony, a college of nursing milestone, marks the passage
of nursing students from the classroom environment to the hospital setting. It proves that the student is
capable of passing all the tests and requirements and can carry out their duties in the clinical setting
competently.

For the most awaited moment of our dear students, let us now witness the 18 th Capping and Pinning
Ceremonies. May I request COLLEGE OFFICIALS AND CLINICAL INSTRUCTORS to please
take your place for the imposition and pinning of pins, thank you!

(Calling the names of the candidate)

IX. Florence Nightingale Pledge

May I call Ms. Ma. Dana Mae A. Sta Ana for the Nightingale’s Pledge and Prof Maryjean Masinda for
the Nurse’s prayer followed by the Batch Song.

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 standard 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 calling

With loyalty will I endeavor

To aid the physician in his work, and devote myself
To the welfare of those committed to my care

X. Nurses Prayer

Jesus, model and inspiration of the nursing profession

I know that when you ascend to heaven, you left
The care of the sick to those of us whom you called
Blessed with the holy profession of Nursing

Help me to be faithful to that calling,

So that I can do all things that you want me to do
In the manner that you want me to do them

Grant that my voice will be gentle,

That my hands may have the softness
And sympathy of your healing hands
That my presence by being something
For the hope and consolation that you brought to sufferers

I want to do all those things, Almighty God,

I know that I am weary and I can’t do things without your aid

Please give that o lord in everyday of my life

So I can be all these things you want me to be
And to stand as an angel of the sickroom

XI. Batch Song “Milestone”

XII. Closing remarks

Okay! Now, to give the closing remarks, may I request our Program Head, Dr. Marissa S.
Tolentino to please come up on stage. Let us give her a round of applause!

XIII. Inspirational Message

Thank you, Dr. Marissa!

 : To give on his very inspiring message, may I call on the father of our beloved Pamantasan, let
us welcome the President of Pamantasan ng Lungsod ng Marikina, Dr. Enrico M. Habijan.
Let us give him a round of applause.

(Dr. Habijan speech)

: Thank you Dr. Habijan for that inspirational message. To continue, to give another inspiring
message may I call on here the father of our beloved Marikina City, Hon. Marcy Teodoro, let us
give him a round of applause.

(Hon. Marcy Teodoro)

: Thank you, Mayor Marcy, for that inspirational message. To continue, to give another inspiring
message may I call on here our beloved Congresswoman, Hon. Marjorie Ann A. Teodoro, let us
give him a round of applause.

(Cong. Maan)

XIV. Recessional

As Florence Nightingale walk towards the hallway of the fort. Holding the lamp that gives light to the
injured soldiers during the Crimean war. That light that continues to give light despite the darkness that
slowly swallows their hope to survive.

At this point, we would like to thank and again acknowledge the presence of those people who made
this ceremony possible, Dean Jacqueline Calaycay, Ms. Marissa S. Tolentino, Prof. Vilma Cordova,
Ms. Dana Mae A. Sta. Ana, Prof. Mary Jean Cynthia Masinda, Dr. Elsa V. Castro, President Erico
Habijan, Congresswoman Maan Teodoro and Mayor Marcy. Thank you very much! Also thank you to
the committees led by Prof. Erald Nepomuceno and Julieta A. Non who works really hard to achieve
the success of this event. Thank you very much!

We know, you student nurses, and future of this cruel world, we know that we can also give light and
become light to others. In time when they loss hope, we will be their hopes. When their knees are
bended because of pain, we are here to lift them up and be their feet. When they are blinded with life,
we will be their eyes and help them see beauty beyond it.

Once again, thank you everyone for gracing our ceremony with your presence and have a nice
day.
