Danielle shared the most adorable footage of the creative “graduation” ceremony her coworkers put together to make up for the one that the nurse had to miss. First, they lured the graduate over to the surprise under the guise of an emergency. Next, her fellow staff members immediately draped her in makeshift robes. They even made her a cap with a tassel!
“When you’re supposed to be graduating valedictorian with your master’s degree, but labor and delivery needed a charge nurse,” the young woman wrote in her caption.
Finally, Danielle got to walk down the hallway in her special outfit while everyone cheered. This graduation ceremony may not have had all the fancy trappings of the one she had to miss, but the nurse was still overjoyed by the incredible gesture. She clearly has the best work friends ever!
