Senior Services

Healthy at every age

Our priority at Henry Ford is to improve and maintain a high quality of life for each patient, so that every day is one well lived.

The experts at Henry Ford have set the gold standard of care for adults -- from the active to the frail elderly. Our team provides excellent care and creates a culture of wellness and independence. We care for each patient with the expertise and compassion we would expect for our own families and friends.

Our providers use a team approach, offering comprehensive, individualized and specialty services for adults as they age, from those in good health to those who require greater medical assistance. This care is provided at some of our outpatient medical centers, our hospitals, and even in skilled nursing, independent/assisted living, or memory care facilities.
