Grace Hospital was established in 1888 and named after Grace McMillan Jarvis, daughter of founder Senator
James McMillan. It was located at the corner of Willis and John R. adjacent to the current main campus of the
Detroit Medical Center. Grace Hospital opened a training school for nurses in 1889. In 1913, the Miriam Memorial Branch of the hospital opened at the former Vinewood Estate of
Bela Hubbard on the north side of Lafayette between West Grand Blvd and Vinewood. It was demolished in 1933. Sinai Hospital's roots date from a clinic opened by Harry Saltzstein, M.D., in 1922. Sinai Hospital opened its doors in January 1953 to give
Jewish healthcare professionals a place to practice without discrimination and as a central institution for the Jewish community. In April 1999, two hospitals with roots in the community since 1888 consolidated services under one roof. The former Sinai and Grace hospitals joined to create a community academic hospital in northwest Detroit and relocated to the former Mount Carmel Hospital building. Around April 1991, Grace Hospital had originally merged with Mount Carmel Hospital. The Grace and Mount Carmel hospital staff merged creating the new Grace Hospital at the 6071 West Outer Drive location. == Clinical services ==
