There are kosher cabinets located in both chapels: Delores Sonderquist Brehm Chapel in University Hospital and the Mike and Helen Vlasic Family Chapel in Mott. Both are accessible 24 hours a day and are stocked by Bikur Cholim of Detroit. Of note, there are no explicit religious symbols in the chapels.
The Department of Spiritual Care includes a rabbi on staff. If you have any needs or would like to speak with a chaplain, please call 734-936-4041 during business hours. For urgent needs, please call the hospital operator at 734-936-4000 and ask them to page the on call chaplain.
We are able to assist with a variety of needs to prepare for Shabbat.
