Is a Faith Community Health Ministry in Your Future?
The Faith Community Health Network (FCHN) supports a growing group of dedicated Faith Community Nurses (FCNs) bringing healthcare access to vulnerable and diverse populations in a non-traditional setting.

Linda Tedisch, FCN Vice President

The Faith Community Health Network and colleagues and friends are saddened to lose a cherished colleague. Linda Tedisch, FCHN Vice-President, began her career at Albany General Hospital in Critical Care serving 20+ years, including several years as manager. She then went on to become the Clinical Manager of Samaritan’s newly-opened Urgent Care/Geary Street Clinic and Manager/Clinical Coordinator of Samaritan’s Medical Home Clinic in Lebanon, OR. In addition to serving on the FCHN Board of Directors, Linda had an active faith community nursing practice in Immanuel Lutheran Church in Albany, OR. We will miss her, but we know she trusted in the Lord with all her heart and knew He “had her back” up to the very end. Linda was born October 24, 1952 and passed June 11, 2024.
