    A Changing Landscape: Contemplating Health Crises with South Dakota's Secretary of Health

    What will be the next public health crisis? That question often lingers in the back of Melissa Magstadt's mind. As South Dakota's Secretary of Health, Magstadt spends much of her time navigating health challenges—not necessarily behind illnesses themselves, but the environments in which people live and work and access basic health needs. Dive into South Dakota's most prominent health crises as Secretary Magstadt and Health on the Map host Marc Long discuss the vitality of partnership and the evolution of care in our rural and tribal communities, from behavioral health and prenatal care to diabetes.
