In Munising, we have outpatient medical appointments for newborns through the elderly.  We have one physicians and one nurse practitioner.  We care for acute needs, chronic medical conditions, and health promotion/disease prevention appointments.  The physician working in Munising specializes in pediatrics while the nurse practitioner focuses on family medicine.  We provide many procedures such as wart treatments, simple skin excisions and toenail removal.  There are nurse only appointments available for blood pressure checks, allergy injections, immunizations, injectable birth control, wound care, ABI, etc. 

We cater to Sault Tribe members, tribal employees, and UPHP patients.  We care for newborns through the elderly.

We encourage patients to have a primary care provider who is available at the nearest clinic.  This provider can help them prevent disease processes, and know them well should they get sick.  We encourage adults who are otherwise healthy to have a physical exam every five years.  We encourage our patients who are on medications to be seen at as often as recommended by their primary care provider.  Children are seen more frequently: At two months, four months, six months, nine months, 12 months, 15 months, two years, and each year thereafter.

We encourage patients to call our appointment schedulers at 906-387-4721.  Routine appointments can be scheduled in this manner.  If patient’s feel that her symptoms warrant an appointment sooner than can be provided, there is always a nurse they can speak with who can help with this.

We invite you to watch the Sault Tribe Health Division video tour of our eight centers. Our informative video will help ou learn about the many services we provide to our members. We thank you for taking your time to tour our great facilities.

Community Health Nursing
Community Health Nursing is a blend of primary health care and nursing practice with public health nursing. The community health nurse conducts a continuing and comprehensive practice that is preventive, curative, and rehabilitative. The philosophy of care is that care directed to individuals, families, and groups contributes to the health care of the whole population. The community health nurse is not restricted to the care of a particular age or diagnostic group. Participation of all consumers of health care is encouraged in the development of community activities that contribute to the promotion of, education about, and maintenance of good health. These activities require comprehensive health programs that pay special attention to social and ecological influences and specific populations at risk.
