Community InvestmentOne-of-a-Kind Care for the ElderlyThe prospect of aging brings with it a host ofquestions for much of the population. Finding theright level of care is a concern, but just as compellingis a need to continue living a life rich in experiencesand relationships, good health and daily activity.Henry Ford Health System, together withPresbyterian Villages of Michigan (PVM) and UnitedMethodist Retirement Communities (UMRC), willbreak ground in late summer 2011 on the EastJefferson Collaborative, a senior center with a dayprogram on the first level and housing and assistedliving on the upper floors. Henry Ford and PVM, willoperate the senior center, while PVM and UMRC willoperate the assisted living program.According to John Polanski, president and ChiefExecutive Officer for Community Care Services atHenry Ford Health System, “Henry Ford currentlyoperates the Center for Senior Independence, aninnovative, all-encompassing approach to senior carethat packages health care, social, and economicservices. Everything needed for the care of theindividual is included in this capitated program fundedby Medicare, from prescriptions to doctor visits tofull day care services, personal care services andsocial activities. It’s truly unique and allows HenryFord to care for the entire person in a coordinated,meaningful way.”Located at Outer Drive and the Southfield Freeway,the Center serves more than 210 seniors. Theaverage age is 86, and all continue to live in their ownhomes but come to the Center as often as every day.Transportation is provided daily for all participants.“The one component we’re missing with the Centeris the ability to offer housing for our clients when theyneed more care,” explains Polanski. “That need will bemet by the East Jefferson Collaborative. While we arestarting with one location, looking ahead, Henry Fordand PVM plan to expand to four sites in SoutheastMichigan. This plan would allow the Centers to servemore than 1,000 participants.”The East Jefferson Collaborative equates to a$4-5 million investment in the community,redevelopment of a neighborhood, and additionaljobs numbering at least 100.It also fills a need for supportof the elderly population inDetroit. Clients without familiesgain a loving, extended family.And when clients have familymembers, they can continue towork knowing their loved one iscared for.“The Center for SeniorIndependence is the onlyprogram of its kind in the area,”says Polanski. “It’s heartwarming.We have a choir, an annualcelebration for those 100 orolder, and our clients enjoy amuch-improved quality of life.With continued expansion, we’llbe able to offer an even greatercompliment of care to many moreresidents. It’s very exciting and soimportant.”16 Henry Ford Health System • 2010 - 2011 System Report
