Providence Healthcare Career Workshops

At Providence, we are committed to building healthy communities and I believe that we have made great strides over the years to ensure that these relationships remain strong as we serve those around us.  I’d like to take this opportunity to thank you for your support to us here at Providence Newberg and for the connection we have had for quite some time now. 

I’ve attached two documents that I’d like to share with you!  Please review them and distribute them to your high school students accordingly.  Do call or reply if you have any questions that we can assist you with.

I will be sending the 2015 Providence Newberg Medical Center Health Career Scholarship Application to each of you, as always, at the beginning of the New Year!

Thanks to each of you,

Samantha Gilbertson
