The Stewart Memorial Healthcare Auxiliary recently presented their tenth annual Dr. Joyce Madigane Memorial Scholarships to three students from the Tyne Valley area: Emma Coughlin (BSc in Kinesiology, UPEI); Cassie Doran (BSc in Foods and Nutrition, UPEI), and Brooke Kelly (Registered Massage Therapy, Eastern College).
Dr. Joyce Madigane served the Tyne Valley area as a family doctor and medical director of Stewart Memorial Hospital for nearly 40 years before her death in 2014. She was always very encouraging of young people who were considering a career in healthcare. The Auxiliary created the scholarship to keep alive the memory of her service to the community.
