The safest year on record was 2022, at a TCR of 3.0, while 2020 saw the highest rate, at 8.1, a spread of 5.1 points between the best and worst reporting years. That's a wide swing relative to the establishment's overall rate, worth checking the year-by-year table below for whether a single severe year is driving the average, rather than a sustained trend.
Summed across those 3 reporting years, McKenzie County Healthcare Systems Inc. recorded 16 total injuries and illnesses, with no fatalities reported in any of those years. Readers comparing establishments should weigh the 3-year trend above alongside establishment size, since a larger workforce naturally accumulates more raw incidents even at a lower per-100-worker rate.

DART Rate, Transparent Calculation (2022)
What is the DART rate formula?
DART (Days Away, Restricted, or Transferred) is computed by OSHA as incidents × 200,000 ÷ hours worked. The 200,000-hour denominator equals roughly 100 full-time workers, which lets establishments of very different sizes be compared directly.
7 DART incidents × 200,000 ÷ 665,600 hours worked = 2.10 DART
Methodology: 29 CFR 1904, OSHA Form 300A recordkeeping
