Emergency Department
685-5320

Memorial Medical Center was designated as a Level III Trauma Center in 2005. This level indicates that a number of medical specialties are available on an “on call” basis at all times. MMC is the only Level III Trauma Center in the northern part of Wisconsin.

The Emergency Department strives to provide prompt and professional care when you need immediate medical attention. It is open 24 hours a day and is staffed by physicians who are experienced in treating seriously ill and injured patients. Our emergency nurses are specially trained in emergency care and are certified in Advanced Cardiac Life Support and Trauma Nursing.

Shortly after your arrival at the emergency department, a registered nurse will evaluate your condition, check your vital signs, and ask about your health history. This process is called "triage," which means "to sort by priority." It ensures that the most seriously ill and injured patients are seen first. Patients with less serious illnesses or injuries may be asked to wait, and will be cared for on a first-come, first-served basis.

Walk In Clinic

The Walk-In Clinic is here to provide care for less serious or minor illnesses and injuries. Typical conditions would include sore throats, earaches, sprains, strains, colds, coughs, and minor lacerations and fractures. It is staffed by either a nurse practitioner or a physician, and is located in the Emergency Department

Walk In Clinic Hours Monday-Friday 4:00 p.m. to 10 p.m. Weekends & Holidays 10:00 to 10:00 p.m

Our Emergency Department consists of a fully equipped four-bed trauma room and four examination rooms.
