The Henry Ford Health System in Detroit will proceed with surgeries at its outpatient locations but will postpone procedures that are not time-sensitive as it makes adjustments due to the coronavirus pandemic, according to C&G Newspapers.
The health system has six outpatient locations and is monitoring its levels of essential supplies, such as surgical masks, gowns and face shields.
