Healthcare professionals like you play a vital role in our communities. You dedicate your workday (or worknight, or both) to caring for the rest of us. The hours can be long, and the physical and emotional demands can be taxing. Add financial stress to this mix, and it will be hard to be at your best for patients—and yourself.
It might not be the first thing that comes to mind when we think of “self-care,” but study after study has shown that financial stress can have a negative impact on your health. We’re talking everything from a weakened immune system to anxiety and depression. Having easy and affordable access to banking services and educational resources can play a big role in reducing this financial stress. That’s where we come in.
At Salal, we have a long history of supporting nurses, doctors, and other healthcare professionals. Our credit union was originally called Group Health Employee Credit Union. We were founded in 1948 by nine Group Health employees who pooled together $45 to start a credit union. These healthcare professionals recognized the need for a financial institution that understood the unique financial challenges faced by individuals working in the healthcare industry.
Seven decades later, our commitment to the healthcare industry continues through our annual charitable giving in support of everything from nursing camps for high school students to funding nurse-driven community healthcare initiatives. We also empower healthcare professionals with access to banking services, exclusive benefits, and the tools to help you take control of your finances. Specialty fixed-rate home loans for nurses and physicians are also available¹.
