Partner Guide to Acute Care Services

North Central Health Care Wausau Campus

Welcome!

North Central Health Care’s Acute Care Services Department welcomes you to our group of county-contracted partnerships. If you don’t already contract with us, we are inviting you to explore North Central Health Care as an opportunity to serve your community members. We are honored that you have entrusted us with caring for those you serve.

At North Central Health Care, we measure success by our ability to provide individuals with customized care programs that suit their lifestyles and help them reach their personal goals. As a county-contracted partner, your consumers have access to utilize several of our acute care programs, including Adult and Youth Behavioral Health Inpatient Hospitals and Adult and Youth Crisis Stabilization Facilities.

Here at NCHC, we understand that navigating these services, initiating admission, and determining the level of care can be a complex process, and we hope that this welcome packet will serve as a guide for you. Please know we are here to help you access our services.
