The Southwest Alabama Nurses Honor Guard is a group of dedicated volunteer nurses who serve with deep reverence and pride, offering a final tribute to their fellow nurses who have passed away. Dressed in traditional white uniforms, we perform solemn ceremonies that echo the traditions of honor guards in other service professions—reading the Nightingale Tribute, lighting the symbolic nursing lamp, and standing watch in silent respect.
We are a 501(c)3 charitable organization. Any gifts or donations are tax deductible. Please let us know should you need a receipt.
The Honor Guard will pay tribute to RN’s, NP’s, LPN’s, or PCT’s/CNA’s at their funeral service. Members of the Honor Guard will read The Nightingale Tribute, place a white rose on the casket, announce end of duty and blow out the candle in a Nightingale lamp. We will be providing our service in Baldwin, Clarke, Conecuh, Escambia, Mobile, Monroe, and Washington Counties,
