ACHCA Scholarships

ACHCA believes that the quality of care and life in a long term care facility or senior housing begins with the Administrator’s quality of education.  An Administrator's preparation is valuable to how they care for their residents and lead their team.  In an effort to provide resources to the early careerists and students interested in pursuing the path of Administrator, ACHCA offers the following scholarships: 

• George & Leah Hollander Memorial Scholarship
• W. Philip McConnell Student Scholarship Fund (sponsored by the ACHCA Ohio Chapter) 
• Dr. Kathryn Hyer Scholarship (sponsored by the ACHCA Florida Chapter)
• Health Care Students, Teachers, and Researchers have the opportunity to share their scholarly and creative work during the annual Convocation while interacting with other students and colleagues from across the country by participating in the Dr. Kevin Hansen Student & Health Care Professional Poster Exposition.  
• Rudy and Chris Michalek AIT Assistance Fund provides financial assistance to new graduates involved in unpaid AIT training programs.
