1990-present

Henry Ford Macomb Hospital marked the 1990s with phenomenal growth, driven in large part by the relationships developed both locally and regionally. In 1990, sponsorship of Henry Ford Macomb Hospital, which was then known as St. Joseph's, was transferred to the Sisters of Mercy and became part of an innovative partnership between Mercy Health Services and Henry Ford Health.

That same year, St. Joseph's Mercy opened southeast Michigan's first newly-constructed women's center with single room birthing suites. In 1996, the Cancer Care Center, in partnership with Henry Ford Health's Josephine Ford Cancer Institute, opened to provide technologically advanced, compassionate care close to home.
