The hospital, which will be built and run in partnership with microhospital operator Emerus, will include an emergency department and eight inpatient beds. The facility will also have a health clinic. 

The hospital will be staffed by emergency medicine physicians and run 24/7. 

Ascension Wisconsin initially struck a joint venture with Emerus to build small, neighborhood hospitals throughout the state in January.
