the first time that we're going to plot for the white coat ceremony is a tradition that welcomes doctor of physical therapy students into the pt profession the white top serves as a traditional symbol of clinical service following the coding students will take a pledge of professionalism and dedication to ethical and quality patient care students wear your white coats with pride and remember the enormous responsibility that comes with being a dpt this is an exciting day and i extend my heart felt to and your families and we are happy to have you here the white coat ceremony was an idea conceived by the arnold p gold foundation to create a psychological contract for professionalism and empathy in medicine the first white coat ceremony took place in 1993 at columbia college of physicians and surgeons the white coat can represent love caring help aid equality respect and comfort it should also remind you the enormous responsibility that comes with being a provider the white coat was originally meant to represent the scientific principles incorporated into the practice of medicine in the late 19th century it had a very practical function for students as they would place books notes and everything relevant to the rotation into the pockets of the white coat now you have all your resources at the tip of your finger you keep one of these in your white coat your smartphone easily fits in a single pocket of your white coat so instead let your white coat serve as a constant reminder of the learning you attained in order to don the white coat and the knowledge skills and abilities you will gain while wearing it a process that will never end throughout the remainder of your career receiving your white coat means that you are accepting and embracing the girl
