RONAN — St. Luke Community Healthcare Network is offering $500 college scholarships to high school seniors at seven area high schools. Counselors at Arlee, Charlo, Hot Springs, Polson, Ronan, St. Ignatius and Two Eagle River have received the scholarship application instruction sheet.

The yearly presentation of $3,500 to area high school graduates has been named in honor of longtime employee and former St. Luke director of nursing Rosemary Miller.

The basic criteria for a Rosemary Miller Memorial Scholarship is a high school cumulative grade point average of 3.0 or better. Other factors that will be considered are activities, honors, awards, community service activities and the applicants education objectives.

Scholarship applications are available at any of the seven high school counselor’s offices or at St. Luke Community Hospital and must be returned to the attention of the Administration at St. Luke no later than April 15, 2011.

Residency program at St. Luke aims to help reverse statewide shortage

It’s no secret that there is a shortage of family medicine doctors in rural areas of the country such as Montana. According the to a study by the Bureau of Health Professions, about 20% of the US population—more than 50 million people—live in rural areas, but only 9% of the nation’s physicians practice in rural communities.  Even worse, statistics indicate that more than 70 percent of physicians practice within a 60-mile radius of the residency where they train. Until this summer there was only one residency training program in the state – in Billings.  In fact, the Treasure State ranks dead last per capita for post-graduate medical education.
