Carrington Medical Center Auxiliary offers scholarship awards

The Carrington Medical Center Auxiliary is once again offering three Leadership Awards (scholarships) to area college students enrolled in any medical field.

Through these leadership awards, it is the hope of the auxiliary to continue the excellence of professional health care in Carrington and surrounding communities.

Three $750 scholarships will be presented to students who have completed one year of college and been accepted into a medical related field. Students enrolled in a two year program may also apply. They will have to have an acceptance letter from an accredited health occupation program. Award recipients must be from the Carrington Medical Center service area.

Applications may be obtained at the Carrington Medical Center and Clinic, New Rockford Clinic and all other professional medical offices in Carrington and New Rockford.

The deadline to apply for these awards is June 15, 2019 and the recipients will be notified of their acceptance by the end of July.

Winners of the 2018-19 scholarships were: Bret Carlson, Pharmacy, North Dakota State University, Fargo; Brenda Hoeckle, Nursing, Lake Region State College, Devils Lake; Candace Nysted, Athletic Training-Pre-PT, University of Mary, Bismarck. Ashley Ystaas, Occupational Therapy, University of North Dakota, Grand Forks and Danielle Shipman, Nursing, Minot State University in Minot.

Anyone with questions about these scholarships may call Lori Solberg at 652-2057 or Dorothy Fenske at Carrington Medical Center at 652-7194.
