Participating hospitals include Caro Community Hospital, Deckerville Community Hospital, Harbor Beach Community Hospital, Hills and Dales General Hospital in Cass City, Huron Medical Center in Bad Axe, Marlette Regional Hospital, McKenzie Health System in Sandusky, and Scheurer Hospital in Pigeon. These organizations are seeking the public’s open and honest feedback regarding health needs, utilization of local services, and suggestions for improvement.
