Henry Ford Hospital - Jackson, partnered with the Henry Ford Health Systems (HFHS -Detroit Area) in April, 2016. Henry Ford Hospital, located in Jackson, Michigan entered our 100^th year May 2018. This partnership is very exciting for Henry Ford Hospital and the Jackson community. The partnership with Henry Ford Health System and most recently with Michigan State University, has allowed an amazing amount of growth opportunity. We have a new Innovation Center (adding State of Art Simulation & Research Labs / May 2017), new Surgical Patient Tower that added 66 private rooms Fall 2018, and implemented EPIC house wide (INPT & OUTPT) in 2016.

Our Emergency room treats over 70,000+ visits annually. We have a Medical ICU, Surgical ICU, CUB (Cardiac Universal Bed), Radiation Oncology, Hematology/Oncology, Full Service line of Ortho (total joint, hand/wrist, foot/ankle, sports, podiatry), Physiatry (PM&R), Neurology and Neurosurgery Service Lines, OT/PT, Certified Stroke Center, in January 2015 we brought on Interventional Radiology and this past summer we developed a full service line for inpatient Physiatry (PM&R). 

Henry Ford Hospital - Jackson received an A rating (along with all hospitals within Henry Ford Health System). This ranks us among the safest hospitals in the United States. We are not your average “community hospital.” We are the hidden gem of Jackson and the only hospital in Jackson County, with the next smaller hospital being 20 miles north (St. Joes/Chelsea). We became a certified Trauma center in Spring 2017, and are the only Level II trauma within a 40 mile radius between 94 and 127 HWY. On April 6, 2015 we went live activating Trauma calls, with 24/7 coverage provided in-house coverage with a physician and advanced practice professional.

In 2013 when we developed a “community based GME Residency program” and today we have 117 residents on site; specializing in General Surgery, Internal Medicine, Family Medicine, Emergency Medicine, Psych and Traditional Year. We are a dual accredited program as of 2017.

At Henry Ford Hospital - Jackson, we believe our community is best served by having the most advanced medical services combined with a progressive philosophy of overall wellness. Together, these two approaches will help our community become the healthiest in Michigan – our vision.
