The Director of the Institut de Formation en Soins Infirmiers (IFSI – Nursing Care Training Institute), Josette Piazza-Cadiou, congratulated the students on their hard work, and reminded them of the values of the IFSI and the Institut de formation d’aide-soignant (IFAS – Healthcare assistant training institute). “Since 1929, our values have been: loyalty, respect, discipline, responsibility, skill, compassion and respect for others,” she said in her speech.
The two top graduates, Laetitia Racca (IFAS) and Marine Guicheney (IFSI), warmly thanked the Institute’s teaching team and CHPG management, emphasising how lucky they were to train in such a high-quality establishment.
In all, 21 nurses from the “Elie Semoun” class of 2021-2024 and 13 students from the 2023-2024 class of healthcare assistants successfully completed their studies.
