DMC Sinai-Grace Hospital is a full-service hospital with 404 licensed beds and more than 700 physicians, 650 nurses, and 1,100 support staff servicing more than 284,000 patients annually. Services and capabilities include cardiology, emergency medicine, obstetrics and gynecology, urological services, psychiatry, radiation oncology, gerontology, physical medicine, and orthopedic surgery.
DMC Sinai-Grace Hospital draws on the traditions of two community hospitals and combines that history with the strength of a large medical system – The Detroit Medical Center (DMC). The hospital today continues to have deep roots in the community, providing compassionate, personal care backed by advanced medical treatments available locally and throughout the DMC.
A Bright and Promising Future
Between 2012 and 2016, DMC invested $77 million in Sinai-Grace over three phases of construction, making it the largest construction project in Northwest Detroit in over 10 years. Phase I of the project was completed in 2014 and resulted in a new 59,000-square-foot Emergency Department and Trauma Center that tripled the size of the former ER and features all-private patient rooms. Phase II was completed in February 2015 and produced two new technologically advanced, family-centered Intensive Care Units. Phase III resulted in a modern and bright new entrance, expansive 18,000 square foot lobby, new roomy registration suite, and expanded radiology area which all opened in June 2015. Phase III was completed in January 2016 with the opening of the new and expanded laboratory.
Since this major construction project was completed in early 2016, Sinai-Grace has continued to invest in the hospital’s facility with renovated patient care units, cath lab, and advanced surgical technology.
A Look at Our Noble Past
Since 1888, two hospitals with roots in the community boldly consolidated services under one roof in April 1999. The former Sinai and Grace hospitals joined to create the leading community academic hospital in northwest Detroit and relocated to the former Mount Carmel Hospital building.
Grace Hospital, founded in 1888, was named after one of the founder’s daughters, Grace McMillan Jarvis. Sinai Hospital’s roots go back to a clinic opened by Harry Saltzstein, M.D., in 1922. Sinai Hospital first opened its hospital doors in January 1953 to give Jewish healthcare professionals a place to practice and as a central institution for the Jewish community.
Detroit Medical Center is continuously honored for the quality of care provided to the community. From patient safety and satisfaction to quality scores and centers of excellence, DMC uses an innovative, industry-leading approach to advance knowledge through research, forever looking for ways to improve the compassionate care of each and every patient, visitor, and employee who walks through our doors. https://www.dmc.org/our-locations/sinai-grace-hospital
