The added services come amid the planned closure of two Hospital Sisters Health System hospitals and regional clinics it operates with Green Bay, Wis.-based Prevea Health. 

“Expanded urgent care access in the region will help decrease patient volumes in local emergency departments, as well as provide hours that might be more convenient for working families in the area,” Brad Groseth, president of Marshfield Health System’s West market, said in a March 7 news release.

Recruitment efforts to staff the new urgent care services have begun. The Marshfield Clinic Health System is also expanding same-day care access across its Western Wisconsin clinics, the release said.
