Two South Haven area women are among InterCare Community Health Network’s first class of medical assistant apprentices who will soon be completing a 12-month program that combines paid, on-the-job training with online classes that will enable them to take an exam to become certified clinical medial assistants.

Ana Vazquez of Bloomingdale and Brenda Parada of Pullman were among six other medical assistant apprentices who were recognized in a graduation ceremony, Sept. 15 at First Congregational Church in South Haven. The other graduates are Brielle Gibson, Daisy Mireles, Maria Palacios, Quenetta Parker, Tammicia Reid and Krissy Thomas.
