Congratulations Brooklyn Martin and Brandon Kober! Exceptional local nursing students recognized with scholarships from NHH
Nursing students Brooklyn Martin and Brandon Kober are the recipients of Northumberland Hills Hospital’s 2018 Health Professions Scholarships.
Presented tonight by NHH Board Chair Elizabeth Selby at the opening of the Board of Director’s June meeting, the scholarships were first introduced in 2003 to assist students from west Northumberland who have chosen to pursue a career in the health-care sector.
“By helping our local students achieve their academic goals, we hope to encourage them to consider opportunities at NHH when the time comes to select an employer,” said Selby.
In addition to being enrolled or accepted for enrollment in a full-time study program, applicants are evaluated on a combination of criteria, including:
- academic achievements;
- extra-curricular activities;
- a letter explaining their career goals; and
- written references.
“Once again, our 2018 applicants demonstrated a very inspiring combination of commitment to their community and academic skill,” said Selby.
Details of the 2018 scholarship winners’ achievements were shared as follows at the evening presentation.
