Henry Ford Health System is providing even more services to Dearborn area patients, with an expanded emergency room and the creation of its new Center for Integrative Medicine.
We are really proud of our ER expansion, said Mary Finn, Group Practice Director for the Henry Ford Medical Group. It has been modified, so all of our bays are private treatment rooms, which was never the case before.

She said the only part of the ER that still has curtain separators is the fast track area, for quick turnover patients, such as someone who might need simple stitches or a straightforward need for medicine.
Henry Ford Health System Fairlane has an expanded emergency room, and has a Center for Integrative Medicine, and well as pain management and anxiety care facilities.
The idea is to try to keep the ER from being as congested, so thats a nice feature, Finn said. So, we have the fast track, we have a new trauma area and we have more patient care spaces and treatment bays, so more than double when we are all done.
She said another effort of the expanded ER is to get people out of the waiting room and into a treatment bay as quickly as possible.
Our goal, with our new strategy with more rooms now, and with more treatment bays, we are trying to get everybody back without waiting in the waiting room, Finn said. It has been rare that I have seen anybody in the waiting room for the last couple months.
She said that even with ER volumes being down across the country because of the pandemic, the Fairlane ERs volume is beginning to approach what it was pre-pandemic, and they are still focusing on not having the waiting room fill up with patients.
Finn said many of the doctor offices have moved to the nearby Henry Ford Medical Center on Ford Road in Dearborn.
She said all three of the Internal Medicine offices are now on the third floor of the Ford Road Center.
Its been a great change, because it allowed everybody to be one, as opposed to three separate spaces, Finn said.
She said Behavioral Services have also moved from nearby office space to the third floor of the Ford Road Center as well.
Finn said the second floor of the Ford Road Center has been utilized to expand the Pain Management Program, which is run through the Department of Anesthesia.
They do a very comprehensive evaluation of the cause of pain and the underlying issues, and if they are able to do treatments for the patient, it could be involving any kinds of procedures or blocks or other measures that can be done, she said. They also have a relationship with the acupuncturist, and they have a pain psychologist.
Finn said the Center for Integrative Medicine is also on the second floor of the Ford Road Center, which houses the acupuncturist, chiropractors, functional medicine (which focuses on holistic or alternative medicine), yoga and massage.
With these moves, the relationship between the Pain Management Program and the Center for Integrative Medicine is growing, she said, especially with respect to acupuncture, adding that HFHS is on the leading edge of the changes that are taking place in health care across the country, including integrated medical records, which can keep a patient safer.
We all have important history, allergy information and things that have happened, that a doctor would want to know about, Finn said. And so, the more a doctor and a medical team can easily access that information, the better off you are.
She said tests dont have to be repeated, and there can be a better focus on a patients medical problems, as well as their history, and what has already been tried.
Some of this is very hard for people to be really good historians on, Finn said. No matter how well educated you are, if you arent a member of the medical field, it can really be very challenging to navigate.
She said she is proud of what the HFHS team is accomplishing, especially in the midst of a pandemic.
Youre seeing a greater push to include more Integrative Medicine and more alternative treatments to augment traditional treatments, Finn said. So thats where there is synergy between the Pain Program, the Center for Integrative Medicine and even Internal Medicine. We have a dietician in the program, as well, and they are recognizing that everyone has something to offer.
