Carrington Medical Center Auxiliary offers scholarship awards for leadership

The Carrington Medical Center Auxiliary is once again offering three leadership scholarship awards to area college students enrolled in any medical field.

Through these 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 and the recipients will be notified of their acceptance by the end of July.

Winners of the 2019-20 scholarships were: Cassidy Bjerke attending the University of Jamestown and enrolled in the Bachelor of Science Nursing Program; Savanna Buskness enrolled in the Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology and Physical Therapist Assistant Programs; Brianna Eli attending North Dakota State University and enrolled in the BSN Nursing Program; Savanna Houle enrolled in the NDSU School of Nursing at Sanford Health in Bismarck and Brady Smith attending the University of North Dakota enrolled in the Doctorate of Physical Therapy program
