Eric Swanson, President of Adventist Health Tillamook states, “A career in healthcare can have the highest ROI for your time in education leading to a high paying, competitive salary. Simply a two-term course at TBCC starts you off on an $55,000-a-year job as an Emergency Medical Technician.” Swanson continues, “In addition, we have several fast-track positions open that do not have education requirements that can provide a long-term, well-paid career or serve as support during education.” The Adventist Health Tillamook Healthcare Fair will also offer a special hospital and clinic tour for all Tillamook County high school seniors starting at 4 p.m., presenting an inside look at several departments including the pharmacy, nursing floor, surgery, medical imaging, laboratory, emergency department and ambulance quarters for curious, healthcare-minded and career-oriented students.

The U.S. Department of Labor projects healthcare to grow 13% by 2031, much faster than average compared to all occupations, citing an aging population and people with chronic diseases accounting for this growth. Adventist Health Tillamook offers above average benefits including a YMCA discount and wellness tools, as well as upward career potential to go from entry level to leader roles. Jonetta Blum, laboratory manager at Adventist Health Tillamook and long-term Tillamook resident shares, “I began my career here, working my way up to my current position with amazing support from Adventist Health Tillamook.” She continues, “Starting a career in healthcare here in Tillamook can lead to a solid career anywhere in the world.”
