Big changes are on the horizon for Trinity Health Ann Arbor, as the healthcare provider embarks on a whopping $60.5 million renovation of its emergency department. This project isn’t just a facelift; it’s a full-scale expansion and upgrade that aims to meet the growing demands of healthcare in the community.

Construction is slated to begin this month, with expectations set for completion by late 2028. And no need to worry—the hospital will remain fully operational, even as the renovations take place. That’s great news for anyone who may need care during this period!
Robust Services for Patients
A Family-Friendly Focus
In addition to enhancing patient facilities, the renovation will also improve spaces for family members and healthcare providers alike. This is crucial, as it creates a welcoming atmosphere not just for those receiving treatment, but also for their loved ones who want to provide support.
Enhanced Efficiency and Technology
With a focus on improved workflow and safety, staff areas will be significantly upgraded as well. A highlight of the renovation is the integration of advanced technology, including a new CT scanner, enabling faster and more efficient imaging. This means quicker diagnoses, leading to more effective treatments!
Funding the Future
Funding for this grand renovation comes from a combination of capital investment from Trinity Health’s national system office, the local Trinity Health Ann Arbor, and the generous support of donors. This strong community backing underscores the commitment to improving healthcare in the area.
