I have worked in the healthcare profession for over 25 years in a variety of roles, from medical billing to hands on patient care as a CNA. No matter what my role has been, providing compassionate care to patients and their families has been my focus. I look forward to continuing this in my next role as a registered nurse. – Caren Vastine, Curry Campus General Scholarship Recipient
Danny Hawthorne
Attending Southwestern Oregon Community College will put me on the path for becoming a Physician Assistant and either work in dermatology or family medicine. Once my schooling is complete, I would like to move back to my hometown of Gold Beach, because I care deeply for the people that live there. I think it is very important that the members of the community receive quality healthcare. – Danny Hawthorne, Art and Toni Poole Scholarship Recipient
Giada Champlain
My time at Southwestern has been an amazing experience. I’ve learned so much from all of the amazing teachers I’ve had. I know I’ll take those lessons with me to university, medical school, and eventually, to the workplace. Getting my degree early not only saved me time and money, but helped me grow in my communication skills, academic performance, and personal growth.
