The system has a close affiliation with University of Wisconsin Hospital and Clinics and numerous clinics across the region. Beloit Memorial Hospital has 256 licensed beds its campus consists of 25 beautiful tree-filled acres and more than 350,000 square feet of space, rising five stories high. The largest and most extensive expansion for Beloit Memorial Hospital was NorthPointe Health and Wellness Campus in Roscoe, Illinois in 2007. Located on 122-acres off Interstate I-39, the campus offers a unique health environment with three dedicated areas of service: NorthPointe Health (diagnostic, Immediate Care and physician clinics), NorthPointe Wellness (medically integrated fitness center), and NorthPointe Terrace (assisted living). In October 2023, Beloit Health System opened the NorthPointe Birth Center on its NorthPointe Health and Wellness Campus in Roscoe, Illinois, bringing a new model of maternity care to the region. The freestanding birth center was created to give healthy, low-risk families another option for pregnancy, labor and delivery, and postpartum care, combining midwifery-led care and a natural, home-like birth experience with the safety and resources of a health system. Beloit Memorial Hospital was renamed as Beloit Health System when it merged with Beloit Clinic in 2010 and became an integrated healthcare organization. By working together, the health system offered a wide range of primary and specialized healthcare services for patients with a coordinated and convenient continuum of care. The integration, an industry standard, contained and maintained quality, a core mission of the health system. The Hendricks Family Heart Hospital, located on the hospital’s fourth floor, opened in 2017 and raised the bar for cardiac care in southern Wisconsin and northern Illinois.
