Шаблон:More citations needed Шаблон:Infobox hospitalHutzel Women's Hospital is one of the eight institutions that compose the Detroit Medical Center.[1] The hospital itself is connected to Harper University Hospital, on the midtown Detroit campus of the Medical Center. It is the only hospital in Southeast Michigan dedicated to women's care. As Michigan's first and only hospital for women, Hutzel Women's Hospital has been The Destination for Women's Care since 1868.[2]

History

Hutzel Women's Hospital is the second oldest hospital in the city of Detroit. It traces its lineage to the period right after the American Civil War when a group of seven women formed an association in 1868 to provide care for unwed mothers and their infants.

Throughout the late 19th century and early and mid-20th century, the hospital became known for its innovative care of women and children, including Detroit's first baby incubator, Michigan's first research laboratory devoted to the "study of women's diseases," and establishment of the nation's first "Mother's Milk Bureau" to ensure a supply of breast milk to infants of non-lactating mothers.

In 1965 the hospital was renamed Hutzel Women's Hospital in honor of Eleonore Hutzel, recognizing her 54 years of service as a student, employee, and trustee of the hospital.[3] Since that time the hospital has seen its services grow to include orthopedics, ophthalmology, a pain clinic and sleep center.

Hutzel is home to the nation's only National Institutes of Health (NIH) Perinatology Research Branch.
