Ontonagon County to Lose Aspirus Hospital Facility

Aspirus Health announced Tuesday that hospital and emergency services at Aspirus Ontonagon will end as of April 20th. The hospital will transition to a clinic model, which means only certain outpatient services will be available, but inpatient treatment, including overnight hospital stays will end. The nearest Aspirus hospital is the Ironwood Hospital located roughly 40 miles away from the Ontonagon hospital. Aspirus says its investing $30 million into its Keweenaw Hospital in Laurium, more than 60 miles away from the Ontonagon location.
