Providence-Providence Park Hospital Renamed

Ascension Michigan has taken the next step in integrating its brand across Michigan and creating a clear and consistent identity with the renaming of all Ascension hospitals in southeast Michigan, including Providence-Providence Park Hospital in Novi. Going forward the facility will be known as Ascension Providence Hospital, Novi Campus.

“In September of 2016 we announced that we would unify our brand statewide. This was the beginning of our efforts to share best practices, enhance patient care and deliver greater value to the communities we serve. This rebranding is the next step in that transition to a unified brand,” said Joseph Cacchione, MD, FACC, CEO, Ascension Michigan.

In the coming weeks, exterior and interior signage, and branded materials, will be updated with the Ascension name and logo at all Ascension hospitals and outpatient facilities in southeast Michigan. The new naming convention makes “Ascension” the first word in every name.

The renaming of the remaining Ascension Michigan facilities across the state will be rolled out in subsequent phases. These facilities include Borgess Medical Center, Borgess-Lee Memorial Hospital and Borgess-Pipp Hospital in the Kalamazoo region; Genesys Regional Medical Center, serving the Flint/Grand Blanc area; St. Joseph in Tawas City; and St. Mary’s of Michigan with hospitals in Saginaw and Standish.
