HRRMC Foundation awards two scholarships
Heart of the Rockies Regional Medical Center Foundation has awarded two $2,500 scholarships, to Caitlyn Wagener of Buena Vista and Debbie Eggleston of Howard, for education in the health care field. Proceeds from the 2012 Jewel Ball funded the scholarships. Wagener is a sophomore at the University of Colorado-Colorado Springs and is studying for a bachelor’s degree in nursing. Eggleston, a nurse in HRRMC’s emergency department, is working toward a Master of Science in Nursing from Regis University in Denver.
