Mercy Health — Marcum and Wallace Hospital recently hosted a two-day Situation Table training, bringing together more than 25 local leaders, service providers, and public safety partners from across Estill County.

The Situation Table is a collaborative, rapid-response model that helps agencies work together to support individuals and families facing acutely elevated risk, connecting them with the right resources before crises escalate.

We’re proud to share that Estill County’s Situation Table is now meeting weekly, making us the 14th community in Kentucky to implement this model. Through this partnership, local agencies are breaking down silos and working together to improve safety, health, and well-being in our community.

We’re grateful to the many partners helping make this work possible.

Across our footprint, we are continuing our commitment to improving access to care, strengthening well-being and supporting healthier communities, as exhibited in our recently released 2025 Community Health Annual Report. This report is a snapshot of how our ministry continues to put good to work beyond our walls.

“Our report goes beyond data to reflect the commitment of our Community Health teams to advancing health and well-being through mission-driven action,” said Gina Hemenway, interim vice president of Community Health. “Each success represents meaningful progress in addressing the factors that shape health — such as food and nutrition security, access to care, affordable housing and social connection — so we can build healthier, more resilient communities.”

💙 We're wearing blue for Colon Cancer Awareness Month! 💙

We wear blue to raise awareness for colon cancer and to remind our community that prevention and early detection save lives.

Colon cancer is one of the most preventable cancers when caught early, yet many people delay screening. If you’re 45 or older, or have a family history, talk with your provider about getting screened. It could make all the difference.

Join us in supporting Colon Cancer Awareness Month by wearing blue, sharing this message and encouraging loved ones to stay up to date on their screenings.

For more information, visit Kentucky Cancer Program- East. Together, we can raise awareness and protect the health of our community. 💙

Thinking of adding vitamins or supplements to your routine? Most people get what they need from a balanced diet, but it’s always best to check with your doctor before starting anything new — especially if you’re taking other medications. Your health comes first!

Spreading awareness, one heartbeat at a time! 💓 We’ve had a busy month celebrating and recognizing heart health across our community for American Heart Month!

We kicked things off by wearing red and hosting resource booths with a photo booth at the hospital, Mercy Health — Irvine Primary Care, and Mercy Health — Powell County Primary Care for employees, patients and visitors, along with our annual Heart to Heart Health Fair.

We also hosted our annual Heart to Heart Health fair at Estill County Extension - Family & Consumer Sciences where attendees received free screenings including blood pressure, BMI, carotid/thyroid, cholesterol and glucose testing, and KardiaMobile EKGs, while also exploring education on heart disease, stroke and heart attack warning signs, medication and vaccine resources, and the connection between oral, mental, and heart health. Heart-healthy treats and CPR certification sign-ups sponsored by the Mercy Health Foundation Irvine were also available.

Interactive demonstrations, including Hands-Only CPR, AED use, and a mechanical chest compression device led by Estill County Emergency Medical Services, helped bring lifesaving skills to life.

Thank you to everyone who joined us in making heart health a priority all month long!
