With the recent announcement from Gov. Tony Evers regarding the cancellation of schools and the importance of the health care workforce at this time, Marshfield Clinic Health System is making an effort to assist employees in finding child care. This process aims to serve as a way to connect those in need of child care with those in the community who are able to provide child care.
If you or someone you know has the ability to watch the child of a local health care provider, you are asked to please consider helping out so that those workers can continue to work and address the health care needs that we are likely to face in the coming days, weeks, and months ahead.
To help out a local health care provider send an email to childcare@marshfieldclinic.org and include some key information. Your information will then be posted on an internal board where a health care worker may be reaching out to you.
Please include information such as:
- Name
- Age
- City of residence
- Days and time of availability
- What age groups are you willing to provide care for (infants, toddlers, teens)
- Any special qualifications (e.g. CPR, formal training, etc.)
- Do you have transportation and how far are you willing to travel to provide child care
- Anything else you think may be relevant
