A historically rooted local hospital

CHI St. Alexius Health Devils Lake Hospital (formerly Mercy Hospital) has operated on the same site since its cornerstone was laid in June 1906, joining CHI St. Alexius Health in April 2016.

A real, current 25-bed Critical Access Hospital

Employing approximately 138 people, the hospital offers 24-7 emergency care, a swing bed program, a critical care unit, and a disclosed advanced birthing center.

Confirm specialty and higher-acuity care access

This record did not independently research the hospital's specific physician-specialty roster this pass -- for higher-acuity or specialized care, confirm current referral patterns to larger regional facilities directly.
