Sinai-Grace Hospital History

Sinai-Grace Hospital - we're a modern institution with a distinguished heritage. Two strong community hospitals - Sinai Hospital and Grace Hospital - joined to create the leading community academic hospital in northwest Detroit.

Our roots in the community stretch back to 1888.

A LOOK AT OUR PAST

In April 1999, two hospitals with roots in the community since 1888 boldly consolidated services under one roof. The former Sinai and Grace Hospitals joined to create the leading community academic hospital in northwest Detroit and relocated in the former Mount Carmel Hospital building.

Grace Hospital was founded in 1888 and named after one of the founder's daughters, Grace McMillan Jarvis. Sinai Hospital's roots go back to Harry Saltzstein, M.D.'s clinic that opened in 1922. The hospital first opened its doors in January 1953 to give Jewish health care professionals a place to practice and as a central institution for the Jewish community.

Sinai-Grace Hospital is a 404 bed hospital with nearly 700 physicians, 670 nurses and more than 1,800 support staff. More than 200 medical students and resident physicians get their advances training at Sinai-Grace, in a variety of medical and surgical specialties every year.
