Henry Ford Health and Acadia Healthcare broke ground on a state-of-the-art behavioral health treatment and teaching hospital.
This new facility will allow Henry Ford Health to deliver innovative care, increase resources and address the growing need for accessible, high-quality behavioral health services in Metro Detroit and beyond. While plans for the hospital were underway before COVID-19, the pandemic has only exacerbated the nation’s mental health crisis, the companies said in a press release.
The new hospital will be a two-story facility, spanning approximately 120,000 square feet on Henry Ford Health’s West Bloomfield campus, making it a natural extension of the services the health system already provides. While the hospital will initially provide 184 inpatient beds, it will have a 192-bed capacity and the ability to expand further to meet increasing need. Henry Ford Health will provide inpatient psychiatric services for adults, seniors, adolescents and children. The new facility will be known as “Henry Ford Behavioral Health Hospital.” Read more.
