Beaumont Health, UHS to Partner on $40M Development of Health Facility in Dearborn, Michigan

DEARBORN, MICH. — Beaumont Health and Universal Health Services (UHS) have formed a joint venture to develop a new $40 million mental health hospital in Dearborn. The partnership also plans to implement Beaumont graduate medical education programs in psychiatry, psychopharmacology and other clinical training opportunities, and expand intensive day programs and outpatient care. Construction is slated to begin in early 2019 on the 150-bed hospital, which will be located across the street from Beaumont Hospital. The facility is expected to open in early to mid-2021. Inpatient mental health services across Beaumont Health will be consolidated into the one location, which will serve adult, pediatric and geriatric patients. Over time, Beaumont plans to implement a comprehensive telemedicine program that will support its nine emergency rooms and other patient care settings across the system.
