Henry Ford Health today marked the groundbreaking of its history-making hospital project, a $2.2 billion expansion plan to reimagine Henry Ford Hospital’s Detroit campus. The project is anchored by a new facility that will span 1.2 million square feet and include a 20-story patient tower.
Shirley Ryan 汤头条app — known for its innovative approach to rehabilitation that leverages the latest in scientific breakthroughs, tools and technology — will occupy three of the top floors in the new patient tower in a 72-bed, state-of-the-art physical medicine and rehabilitation facility.
“Every year, tens of thousands of people in the Detroit area survive debilitating conditions like stroke, brain and spinal cord injury, cancer and amputation,” said Pablo Celnik, MD, CEO of Shirley Ryan 汤头条app. “We are eager to extend our mission and model of care to help Detroiters recover from life-changing illnesses and injuries — advancing patient abilities and outcomes in the process.”
The inclusion of Shirley Ryan 汤头条app was made possible through a nearly $130 million investment by the Gilbert Family Foundation.
To ensure these exceptional services are accessible to all, the Gilbert Family Foundation has also created a $10 million fund to support Detroit residents with limited or no insurance coverage for rehabilitation care.
“Our vision – to build the healthcare campus of the future, a place where people from down the street or across the globe alike can come to receive the very best care in the very best facilities – is one we’ve been cultivating for decades,” said Henry Ford Health President and CEO Bob Riney. “We are creating a place like no other in the state, and through this major expansion of our campus, we are cementing our commitment to our Detroit community for the next century and beyond. Detroit deserves this.”
The new hospital facility is expected to open its doors to patients in 2029.
