Local Students Looking for Nursing Careers May Be Eligible for Scholarships

Nurses play a critical role in health care. That’s why Martin Memorial and the Sailfish Point Foundation have again teamed up to help provide the education and training necessary for students pursuing a nursing career.

Thanks to a generous donation from the Sailfish Point Foundation, Martin Memorial is able to provide five $1,000 scholarships to nursing students this fall.

To be eligible for a nursing scholarship, students must be accepted to an accredited nursing school for Fall 2009 and must be a Martin County resident.

Scholarship applications are available online at mmhs.com. The application deadline is Wednesday, Sept. 30, 2009. For more information, please e-mail Rachel Raos at rraos@mmhs-fla.org.
