Reminder - Applications for 2019 Health Professions Scholarships due Feb 15th
Do you know a local student pursuing post-secondary education in a health-related field? Please pass this on!
Applications for Northumberland Hills Hospital’s 2019 Health Professions Scholarships are due on Friday, February 15th.
Introduced by Northumberland Hills Hospital (NHH) in 2003, the purpose of the scholarship program is to provide financial assistance to students from west Northumberland who are pursuing a career in the health care sector. Applicants are evaluated on the basis of their academic achievements, extra-curricular activities, a testimonial explaining their interest in a health-care field and written references. All applicants must be enrolled or accepted for enrollment in a full-time study program.
By supporting local students early in their academic studies, NHH hopes to encourage area youth to consider NHH in their career path when the time comes to select an employer. Details on last year’s recipients will be found in the June 2018 news release archived on the NHH website available here.
The 2019 scholarships ($1,000 for each student selected) will be presented at a spring meeting of the Northumberland Hills Hospital’s Board of Directors.
Full details, including a downloadable Application Form, are available year round on the Careers tab of our website at nhh.ca/Careers/StudentScholarship.
