Facility Overview
Westfields Valet - Lot #232 is an essential dedicated parking facility located directly on the medical campus of Westfields Hospital & Clinic at 535 Hospital Rd in New Richmond, Wisconsin. As part of the HealthPartners network, this well-maintained surface parking lot and drop-off facility provides seamless, stress-free access for patients, medical visitors, hospital staff, and consulting specialists. The facility is arranged as an expansive open-air ground-level surface lot, designed with wide lanes, clear directional signage, and direct sidewalk connections to the main clinic and emergency entrances. Because the lot is completely open-air without overhead structures or low ceilings, it features unobstructed vertical clearance. This makes it an ideal parking solution for all passenger vehicles, full-size pickup trucks, large sport utility vehicles, handicap-equipped high-top vans, and specialized medical transport vehicles.

Visitor & Driver Tips
When arriving at Westfields Hospital & Clinic, follow the clearly posted on-campus signs directing you to the Main Entrance and Visitor Parking (Lot #232). If you are assisting a passenger with limited mobility, make use of the covered front entrance canopy circle first to safely drop them off before parking your vehicle in the lot. Valet services are periodically available during high-volume clinical hours; simply pull up to the attendant stand if assistance is required. During Wisconsin winter months, the campus facilities team regularly plows and salts the asphalt, but caution is always advised on walking paths during active snow and ice conditions.
