Mid‑Michigan Medical Examiners Group presents 2023 annual report to Oscoda County board
Summary
Mid‑Michigan Medical Examiners Group presented its 2023 annual report to the Oscoda County Board, which discussed staffing additions to the examiner team and praised the local partnership with MMMEG, including positive testimonial from a constituent.
At the Aug. 27 meeting, Jennifer Sprik of Mid‑Michigan Medical Examiners Group presented the organization’s 2023 annual report and shared a 2024 month‑to‑date update. The report outlined the MMMEG staff and investigators and noted recent additions to the local investigator pool intended to bolster coverage.
Sheriff Grace told the board the county experienced staffing issues earlier in the year but has worked through them and values a strong partnership with MMMEG. EMS Director Robert Stankiewicz said he agreed and described joining MMMEG as an after‑hours commitment that would not conflict with his priorities in Oscoda County.
At least one resident, Ann Galbraith, recounted a positive personal experience with MMMEG in the wake of a family death, saying the agency’s handling was “wonderful.” Commissioners McCauley and Varner also spoke in favor of the service, describing local instances where MMMEG assisted the county.
The presentation was informational; no board action was required or taken on the item. The board proceeded to routine administrative agenda items following the report.
