Patient Care

With three hospitals, approximately 40 health centers and 120 outpatient clinics, the U-M Medical School and its Faculty Group Practice, the U-M School of Nursing and the Michigan Health Corp., the world-class U-M Health System offers an ideal environment for patient care.

A reputation such as ours is built on a history of firsts and bests, discovery and innovation and – when it comes to patient care – concern for the individuals and families we serve. Most importantly, since 1852, we have put our patients and families first.

We’ve been involved in groundbreaking and standard-setting work, like the Child and Family Life Center — the first of its kind in the United States — where long-term hospitalized children can still be children and even keep up with school; our Birth Center, one of the first facilities in the country to offer single-room maternity care to mothers and families, and so much more.

And our commitment to our patients continues as we make patient care improvements and build for the future:

Our investments in people, places and the right things bring huge rewards in terms of patient loyalty – and patient outcomes. And that’s what counts.
