Tracey, of Brandenburg, admittedly had let her screening mammogram slip over the past few years, busy being a mom and a nurse. One morning, Tracey felt something in her breast, so she conferred with her co-workers and called her doctor. She and her doctor were trying to get her mammogram scheduled quickly, and Tracey said the only reason that she ended up at Harrison County Hospital was that she was able to get an appointment here the fastest.

After Tracey’s mammogram and diagnosis, she went to see an oncologist and asked for a referral to Dr. Karen Johnson Brunkhorst, here at HCH. Dr. Brunkhorst had done Tracey’s niece’s double mastectomy at another hospital, and Tracey had only heard how wonderful she was. Tracey said that it was by accident that she found Dr. Brunkhorst. While she had heard of her, it was having her mammogram at HCH that brought them together.

After consulting with Dr. Brunkhorst, Tracey wasn’t fully set on her plan and went to another surgeon. She felt like she didn’t connect with that surgeon and returned to Dr. Brunkhorst. After going over all of her options with Dr. Brunkhorst, on April 14, Tracey underwent a bilateral mastectomy with sentinel node biopsy at Harrison County Hospital and went home 19 hours later.

This week, we sat down with Tracey and Dr. Brunkhorst. Tracey just visited her oncologist, and this week she sees her radiation oncologist.

Tracey has had a great support system, which includes her friend, co-worker, and fellow nurse Abby, from Vine Grove, KY, who has accompanied her to many appointments. Abby admitted that when Tracey told her the plan, she doubted going to a small hospital to undergo this surgery. Tracey told her, “It’s okay, I have the best surgeon!” Abby came to that first appointment and expressed that she couldn’t believe that this beautiful hospital is located right here in Corydon.

Abby said she went home after meeting Dr. Brunkhorst and told her husband, “We now have a surgeon for our family in Harrison County!” Her husband replied, “Where is Harrison County?” Abby happily informed him about the “hidden gem of a hospital” that she and Tracey had discovered in Corydon.

Tracey and Abby agreed that Dr. Brunkhorst has been absolutely wonderful. “Dr. Brunkhorst is such an advocate for her patients. She’s able to get on the patient’s level and takes her work very personally.” Tracey and Abby described Dr. Brunkhorst as relatable, patient-focused, and a perfectionist.

Tracey, we wish you the best with your continued recovery and thank you for sharing your story of how our small, community hospital provided you with the best, most personal care during a trying time. 🩷

Bringing Healthcare to Your Doorstep: Introducing Our Mobile Integrated Health Program 🏠🚑

We are thrilled to announce a new way we’re caring for our community! Harrison County Hospital is officially launching our Mobile Integrated Health (MIH) program.
We believe that high-quality care shouldn't be confined to a clinic or hospital ward. Our MIH team of specialized healthcare professionals is hitting the road to bridge the gap between traditional healthcare and your home. By partnering closely with local EMS, primary care physicians, and community first responders, we provide a vital link for patients who need extra support—whether they are recovering from an illness, managing a chronic condition, or have been referred to us by emergency personnel in the field.

🌟 What This Means for You

Our program focuses on personalized, in-home care to help you stay healthy, safe, and independent. We specialize in:

• Clinical Follow-Ups: Whether you’ve recently visited your doctor or were assisted by EMS, we provide the necessary follow-up care to ensure your recovery remains on track.
• Diabetes Management: We provide hands-on education and monitoring to help you master your glucose levels and feel confident in your daily routine.
• Home Safety Evaluations: Our team identifies potential hazards in your living space to help with fall reduction, ensuring your home remains a safe haven.
• Chronic Disease Support: We work alongside your existing healthcare providers to manage long-term health goals from the comfort of your living room.

🤝 Our Goal: Your Independence

By bringing clinical expertise directly to you, we aim to empower our patients, prevent complications before they start, and improve the overall quality of life for our neighbors.

"This program allows us to meet patients where they are most comfortable. By bridging the gap between standard medical care and the home, we ensure every patient has the support they need to thrive in their own environment." — Jacob Metcalf, Mobile Integrated Healthcare Clinician.

Keep an eye out for our team in the community! If you or a loved one is interested in learning more about how our MIH program can support your health journey, please visit www.hchin.org/mih or talk to your doctor or emergency responder about a referral.
