The Nightingale Tribute was developed by the Kansas Nursing Association in 2003 for recently departed nurses. The following document contains the instructions for the beautiful service along with a poem, “She Was There.” It is encouraged to adapt the service and wording of the poem to fit the nurse being honored.
