Cleveland Clinic Caregivers Travel to Henry Ford Health System

Physicians and nurses travel to Michigan to help with the COVID-19 pandemic.

Cleveland Clinic caregivers traveled to Detroit’s Henry Ford Health System to provide assistance during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Leaving from Avon Hospital, the caregivers were given an enthusiastic send-off from Cleveland Clinic senior leadership as well as an outpouring of support from fellow employees and the community. The City of Avon responded with its safety service forces and the hook-and-ladder American flag that added an inspiring statement of encouragement.

As the COVID-19 pandemic continues to spread in the United States, Cleveland Clinic has reached out to health systems in the hardest hit areas of the country to provide assistance.

Cleveland Clinic connected with hospitals in New York and Michigan that have requested help of available caregivers, including critical care nurses, nurse practitioners, board-certified critical care and emergency medicine physicians, physician assistants, and CT and X-ray technicians.

Cleveland Clinic sent 13 nurses to Henry Ford Health System.
