For the City Times

MARSHFIELD – To help “flatten the curve,” Marshfield Clinic Health System is implementing temporary changes in the hours of operations at our centers throughout Wisconsin. These changes will allow the system to reallocate providers, staff, and supplies in anticipation of a surge of patients who may have COVID-19 and most importantly, keep our patients and staff safe.

All of our hospitals remain open 24/7. Patients are encourged to call ahead and verify if their appointments are still scheduled and if the appointment has been moved to a different location. These hours may change as the situation evolves and will be updated at marshfieldclinic.org.

“We realize this is a difficult decision, but we are doing this to be most prepared to treat our patients with COVID-19 symptoms. We need to be ready for the surge of cases. We need to keep our staff and patients safe, and minimize exposure. That means limiting face-to-face contact,” the health system said in a release.

 “Our patients who are ill and need to see a physician will be seen. Our cancer care centers remain open. Call and we will find a way for the patient to get the care and treatment they need.”

Telehealth is a key resource

Marshfield Clinic Health System patients can contact Nurse Line at 1-844-342-6276 with questions. Non-Health System patients can use Care My Way, available seven days a week from 7 a.m. – 9 p.m. Visit marshfieldclinic.org/care-my-way for more information.

You may also call our COVID-19 Helpline, open 24/7, at 877-998-0880, to ask questions and get factual information about the virus.
