McKenzie Featured on National Television Program “All Access with Andy Garcia”

McKenzie Health System is proud to announce that it has been selected to be featured on All Access with Andy Garcia, a nationally broadcast public television program that highlights organizations making a meaningful difference in their communities.

The feature will showcase McKenzie’s commitment to proactive, patient-centered healthcare and its ongoing efforts to shift from a sickness/volume to a wellness/value model of care—one that not only focuses on prevention, quality of life, and overall community health, but also continues to raise the bar in delivering exceptional care when it’s needed most. This balanced approach ensures that patients receive the right care, at the right time, for the right reasons, and for the best possible outcomes.

Filmed earlier this fall in Sandusky, the All Access segment highlights McKenzie Health System’s story through the perspectives of Steve Barnett, President and CEO; Dr. Mark Hamed, Emergency Department Medical Director; and Erin Carlson, community member, local teacher, and McKenzie patient. Together, they share how McKenzie and the people of Sanilac County are working hand in hand to strengthen rural healthcare, promote wellness, and build a healthier future.

“Being featured on All Access is an incredible opportunity to share the story of how a rural hospital and its community are working together to strengthen local healthcare,” said Steve Barnett, President and CEO of McKenzie Health System. “This recognition reflects the dedication of our entire team and the support of the people of Sanilac County and beyond, who are the reason for everything we do.”

The All Access with Andy Garcia series features stories from across the country that highlight innovation, leadership, and community impact in industries such as healthcare, education, and technology. McKenzie’s episode will focus on how proactive healthcare models and strong community partnerships are redefining the future of care in rural areas.
