If Your Child Requires Hospitalization

We use a direct admission process. If necessary, your child can be admitted directly to the hospital by their primary care physician without going through the Emergency Center.

If your child is coming in through this process (Direct Admit), you will stop at Admitting on the first floor of the hospital to register your child. If it is after 7 p.m., you will come in through the ER for registration only. Once registered, you will be escorted to the Pediatrics Unit.

Henry Ford Macomb maintains 24/7 coverage on the Pediatrics Unit. Once admitted, your child will be seen promptly by one of our pediatric hospitalists.
