Savannah Moorehead, Lab
“I started working at Fairfield Medical Center as a lab assistant while I was in college to become a lab tech. The financial assistance I was able to receive through Fairfield Medical Center with both tuition assistance and the hard-to-recruit scholarship helped pay for the rest of my schooling and ultimately led to me graduating debt free.”
