UP Health holding open house in Calumet today

All are invited to an open house at UP Health System’s Calumet Express Care Clinic Tuesday afternoon from 3:00 to 6:00. The building is not new, but expanded operations will make it accessible for more people than ever before. Since it opened, the clinic was staffed three days a week, but that is changing to uniform hours every day. Angela Luskin explains when to use Express Care versus an emergency room.

Express Care would be for respiratory symptoms, if someone has rashes, a urinary tract infection. Maybe their throat hurts, they’re wonder if they have strep throat, or they’re wondering if they have influenza, or UTI. We do minor suturing. In the summer, we’ll get a lot of tick bites.

The Calumet location is open from 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM, syncing it with the Houghton clinic located on Sharon Avenue. UP Health’s Calumet site is on US-41, and features x-ray capabilities, plus a couple of other features that make it unique.

We have occupational medicine services, so if a person needs their CDL or DOT certificate, we’re able to do that. Drug testing, if there are companies that need physicals for their employees, like pre-employment physicals, we’re able to help with that too.

At the open house, you’ll have the chance to meet the care providers, enjoy a meal, and receive a COVID-19 vaccine.
