Introduced by the hospital 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.
The 2018 scholarships ($1,000 for each student selected) will be presented at a spring meeting of the Northumberland Hills Hospital’s Board of Directors.
The deadline for applications to Northumberland Hills Hospital’s annual Health Professions Scholarship Program has been extended. Applications for the 2018 awards are now due by Thursday, March 1st.
