Recipients of Pinnacle Quality Insight Scholarship


Congratulations to Heather Sowa and Haseena Vaswani, who were recently awarded Pinnacle Quality Insight Scholarships. 


Heather has been in long term care for more than 5 years and is currently an LPN at Oregon City Health Care Center, Prestige Care, Inc.  She is enrolled in the nursing program at Chemeketa Community College and plans to complete her Associate Degree in June 2010.  Her short term goal is to become an RN in June and then she plans to begin a Bachelor of Science program in September 2010.  


Haseena has been working in long term care for nearly 7 years and is currently the Social Services Director at Marquis Care at Hope Village, Marquis Companies.  She plans to apply to the Masters in Social Work program at Portland State University in January 2010.  Haseena is passionate about pursuing further education so she may provide greater social services to seniors in long term care.  She believes more education about the resources available for mental health is necessary in providing better quality of life for the aging population.



Congratulations to both of you, we wish you continued success!
