COMMUNITY DRIVEN
McKenzie Health is here today because of the hard work and vision of community-minded individuals. These people epitomize the spirit of work and caring that made McKenzie County the place it is today.
They spoke of the “founders of our community” and how they “spent the vigor of their youth building up the way of life we enjoy today.”
They felt a responsibility to provide quality healthcare to those pioneers. With that same attitude, we continue to work to provide healthcare services to those who chose to live and work in a rural area.
RECOVER IN A COMFORTABLE, FAMILIAR PLACE
Our Transitional Care Program is ready to help you or your loved one recover in a healing environment, staffed by the region’s best medical care team.
Our goal is to return patients to an optimal level of independent function with the help of an individualized treatment plan.
