Puyallup Tribal Health Authority celebrates graduating medical residents

By Puyallup Tribal News Staff

Medical residents at the Puyallup Tribal Health Authority wrapped up their three-year residencies and celebrated at Slahal Steakhouse in June.

Each graduating doctor had the opportunity to share words with their families, colleagues and PTHA staff.

The event began with a blessing from Heritage Division Manager Connie McCloud, and included drumming and singing from the Culture Department.

Each resident was blanketed and also given four more blankets to give to individuals they chose.
