Sanilac County, Mich. – McKenzie Health System is happy to announce the addition of family healthcare provider Shaina Martin, MSN, FNP-BC, to McKenzie Family Healthcare in Sandusky. Shaina brings a wealth of knowledge, diverse clinical experience, and a deep passion for community health to her new role as a full-time Family Nurse Practitioner.
Shaina earned her Bachelor of Science in Interdisciplinary Studies focusing on child advocacy from the University of South Carolina – Upstate, followed by a Bachelor of Science in Nursing from the University of Northwestern – St. Paul. She then pursued her Master of Science in Nursing, specializing in Family Nurse Practitioner, from Spring Arbor University.
With over six years of nursing experience, Shaina has worked in various settings including acute care, ICU, PAT, Perioperative, OR, Homecare, and department management. Her most recent roles include serving as a nurse practitioner at the McKenzie After-Hours Clinic, and with MRG, where she provided care to veterans.
Shaina grew up in Croswell, and after completing her education and traveling around the country, she returned to her hometown. She now lives with her husband, Tyler Martin, a Croswell native and part-owner of The Camm Cafe, and their beloved dog. As outdoor enthusiasts, Shaina and Tyler enjoy seeking new adventures and spending time in nature.
Shaina’s inspiration to pursue a career in nursing stemmed from her close relationship with her grandparents. Her grandmother, who became a nurse practitioner later in life, served as a significant influence. Attending her grandmother’s graduation for her master’s degree left a lasting impression on Shaina and motivated her to follow a similar path in healthcare.
Shaina expresses her enthusiasm for her new role, saying, “Being a part of this community for the past 20 years has been a blessing. You watch how the community comes together and supports one another in all different aspects of life. I am excited to continue working with and providing care for those in our community.”
“McKenzie Health System is thrilled to welcome Shaina Martin, MSN, FNP-BC,” shares Heather Baumeister, Director of Healthcare Practices at McKenzie. “We are confident that her expertise, compassionate care, and dedication will greatly benefit our patients and the community at large.”
