When your Heart Can't Wait

At Henry Ford, we beat the national average every day.

At Henry Ford, we have one of the nation's best programs for quickly treating heart attack patients. 

And you don't have to live close to Henry Ford Hospital to get that treatment either. For instance, more than 80 percent of all patients are treated for a heart attack under 90 minutes at Henry Ford Hospital. The national average is about 50 percent.

Our team of emergency room physicians and nurses and cardiac physicians and nurses work together with paramedics and the doctors at other emergency rooms to get patients FAST treatment. Because of this level of excellence, Henry Ford Hospital has been chosen to provide emergency back up cardiac services regionally and for southwest Ontario.

In fact, over the last five years, we've developed one of the most extensive outreach programs to suburban emergency rooms.

Patients who go to emergency rooms in Dearborn, Wyandotte, Warren, Sterling Heights, West Bloomfield and Windsor receive fast treatment from Henry Ford doctors almost immediately.

We're Henry Ford. When others can't, we can.
