Marshfield Clinic Health System this week announced that its new Stevens Point hospital will be named Marshfield Medical Center-River Region at Stevens Point.
The hospital expansion, which opens in May, is adjacent to Marshfield Clinic Stevens Point Center located at 4100 State Hwy. 66.
When the expanded medical campus is completed, Marshfield Medical Center-River Region at Stevens Point will feature:
- 12 hospital inpatient beds
- Surgical suite with operating and procedural rooms
- Emergency services
- 29 specialty services, adult and pediatric primary care, physical and occupational therapy, urgent care, lab, imaging, and optical
- Full-spectrum of cancer care at Marshfield Clinic Cancer Center
“These hospital projects represent the continued progress of our strategy to expand access to excellent care for rural communities,” said Dr. Susan Turney, CEO of Marshfield Clinic Health System, in a Jan. 18 news release. “We made a promise to those we serve that we would provide care how, when, and where they want to receive it, and we are proud to keep delivering on that promise.”
The Health System’s River Region takes its name from the Wisconsin River and applies to both the Stevens Point campus and a planned hospital facility in Wisconsin Rapids.
The new Wisconsin Rapids facility will be adjacent to the existing Marshfield Clinic Wisconsin Rapids Center, 220 24th Street South. Construction is planned for 2022, with anticipation to begin seeing patients in 2023.
The expanded Wisconsin Rapids campus will include inpatient beds, an emergency department, and expanded radiological services, such as CT. Patients will also have expanded telehealth access to the Health System’s Marshfield hospitalists and specialists.
