Scholarship created

Maria Joseph Nursing and Rehabilitation Center has honored a longtime employee and volunteer with a scholarship program in her name.

Precious Blood Sister Alice (Rose Miriam) Schoettelkotte has served in various capacities at the Maria Joseph Center for 37 years, primarily in pastoral and spiritual care. The Sister Alice Schoettelkotte Scholarship will provide grants to local high school students, as well as current employees of the Maria Joseph Center.

The scholarship is available to seniors at Trotwood-Madison and Northmont high schools who wish to pursue studies for State Tested Nurse Aide (STNA) certification. MJC employees who wish to gain further education in their field and advance professionally within the organization may also apply. Grants will cover both tuition and test fees.

For more information, both students and employees may contact Anderson at 937-278-2692.
