The award goes to TriState Health for the Community Spirit Award! Their nominator said, “TriState Health collaborates with many organizations throughout the community to support education, health initiatives, and more. They partnered with the Clarkston School District to create programs that offer our students growth and career advancement opportunities such as: a Student Scrubs Camp where students heard from healthcare professionals and had hands-on learning opportunities; implementing a CNA program tailored for high school students in partnership with Walla Walla Community collage; offering a radiology internship to expose students to the behind-the-scenes processes of patient scheduling, registration, and customer service; and launching an Athletic Training Program to service Clarkston High School's student-athlete population. The new program ensures students are safe and have access to prevention, triage, and treatment of sports-related injuries. These programs are just the start of TriState's commitment to workforce development and the safety of our students.”
