Munson Healthcare Cadillac Hospital and Munson Healthcare Grayling Hospital received âAâ marks while Munson Healthcare Manistee Hospital, Munson Healthcare Otsego Memorial Hospital and Munson Medical Center received âBâ grades. The grades were released April 29.
âDespite the unprecedented challenges posed by the pandemic, I applaud the staff and physicians across our health system who continue to focus on safe, high-quality care for our patients,â said Ed Ness, president and CEO of Munson Healthcare. âThese grades reflect their efforts and should provide real assurance for everyone in our communities that great care remains close to home.â
On Monday, the community got a better idea of what will happen to the facility.
Munson Healthcare announced that Cadillac Hospital and Mary Free Bed Rehabilitation Hospital have entered into a joint operating agreement to bring state of the art rehabilitation services to Cadillac.
The agreement means Mary Free Bed will manage the outpatient physical, occupational, and speech therapy services in Cadillac; however, local physical therapists you already know are keeping their jobs. The entire Cadillac-based rehab staff transitioned to Mary Free Bed, and it was an incredibly smooth and very positive experience,â said Peter Marinoff, Cadillac Hospital community president. âIn addition to our core rehab services, we will work with Mary Free Bed to develop the Pine Grove building into an outpatient facility with enhanced programs to support community health and wellness.â

CRAWFORD COUNTY, MI A Grayling woman has been charged with first degree child abuse after her 3-week-old infant was found to have multiple injuries that did not appear to be accidental. Kayla Daykin, 21, was arraigned in 46th District Court in Crawford County on Dec. 15 and her bond was set at $20,000.
According to the Michigan State Police, troopers were called to the Munson Healthcare Grayling Hospital on Sept. 11 for a report of alleged child abuse. Troopers were met by a Child Protective Services officer who said the infant’s injuries were serious enough that the child was being flown to Helen DeVos Children’s Hospital in Grand Rapids. Daykin had brought the infant to the hospital for a scheduled appointment.
