Honor guard pays respect, releases nurses from their duty

It is a touching tribute for those who have dedicated their professional lives to service in fields such as police, fire and the military. In nursing, it exists too in an organization known as the Nurse Honor Guard. "The first tribute I did was so touching and emotional. I really connected with the nurse that I never met. And the family was just so thankful," said Vanessa Ryks, an oncology nurse. The Nurse Honor Guard is a volunteer organization with chapters all over the country and right here in Northeast Ohio. They perform a ceremonial tribute at funeral, memorial or graveside services of fallen nurses -- as well as honoring those who are in hospice care. "Nurses are doing an incredible job. They contribute to comfort. They contribute to peoples' health. And I just felt it was a privilege for me now that I am retired to be part of that whole tribute," said Jan Frandsen, a retired nurse practitioner who devoted 22 years to doing hospice and palliative care. Clad in their distinctive while uniforms, capes and caps - the wardrobe is a nod to nurses of the 1800's as they tended to soldiers on the battlefield. The Honor Guard performs the Nightingale Tribute and Final Call of Duty officially releasing the nurse from their duties. A lit Nightingale lamp is carried up at the beginning of the ceremony and is then extinguished after the Final Call of Duty and presented to the family with words of condolences.
