NorthLakes Responds to HSHS and Prevea Closings in Western Wisconsin
We recognize the closing of Sacred Heart Hospital, St. Joseph’s Hospital and Prevea this spring will negatively impact many patients, employees and community members in the region.
The Need for Sleep
With the festive hustle and bustle the holiday season brings, I bet you’ve been busy! Same here. Do you know what tends to get shortchanged when we get busy? Lots of things, probably. But a big one is sleep. It tends to become an afterthought, treated as somewhat optional. We know we need our rest – but we also need to get this done, and get that done – and so we nibble at its edges in favor of our to-do list. So this is a gentle reminder for you to reconsider that approach.

NorthLakes Community Clinic Opens Three New Physical Therapy Locations
NorthLakes Community Clinic (NLCC) is starting 2024 with three new locations in Bayfield and Douglas counties.

The clinics are located in Bayfield, Poplar and Solon Springs. OST’s Iron River Clinic was also included in the sale, which had been operating out of NLCC’s current Iron River location.
