Dear Applicants,​

​

Thank you for considering our program! At Henry Ford Warren, we strive to train highly-skilled and compassionate physicians who, by the time they finish residency, can provide quality patient care wherever they go. Our residents have the benefit of training at various sites where they see truly diverse patient populations with high acuity. Our goal is to guide our residents through the challenging specialty of Emergency Medicine to enable them to become competent physicians who feel fulfilled in their career.

 

Henry Ford Warren Emergency Medicine Residency is based at a two campus community hospital system with a total of 535 beds and two very divergent populations only five miles apart. The Warren Macomb Campus is an Accredited Chest Pain Center with PTCA, an Advanced Primary Stroke Center and Accredited Trauma Center. Madison Heights Oakland campus is a Level 4 trauma center with occasional walk-in penetrating trauma and a wide variety of complex/rare pathologies. Our residents who rotate through the Oakland campus gain invaluable experience on managing a smaller department with fewer available resources. Having both of these campuses gives our graduates the skills needed to practice in a variety of settings after graduation. Our residents also spend several months at Henry Ford St. John Hospital in Detroit, giving them the experience of an urban, high volume, emergency department as well as further experience in trauma resuscitations. Three of those months are dedicated to Pediatric Emergency Medicine working with Board Certified Pediatric Emergency Physicians.

​

Upon completion of our program, our residents are well suited to practice emergency medicine in urban, suburban and rural settings. We also offer our residents an additional month of dedicated trauma with an option to rotate at Detroit Medical Center Sinai-Grace Hospital (for those who do not wish to travel) or out of state to Shock Trauma at the University of Maryland Medical Center. Our Pediatric ICU rotation is currently provided at Children’s Hospital of Michigan located in Detroit.

 

Our hospital has over 20 graduate medical education training programs. We have approximately 240 residents and fellows and serve as a base hospital for 100 students from Michigan State University and Kansas City University. Our program provides Ultrasound Certification in your first year, quarterly SIM lab training, and a strong didactic program. We have recently incorporated the use of EM Foundations into our monthly didactics which provides a highly interactive educational experience with targeted content based on the resident’s PGY. We have a dedicated research director and our residents have presented at ACEP, SAEM, ACOEP and MAOPS and have taken first place awards.

​

Henry Ford Warren EM Residency Program is a member of the Michigan State University Statewide Campus System which provides monthly national speakers, a multitude of hands-on training labs, and camaraderie with 16 other Michigan Emergency Medicine residency programs.

​

We are a closely knit group and encourage support and cooperation between our residents and faculty. I invite you to contact us for a rotation or schedule a visit, so you can catch us in action, and let us get to know you!
