Serving the Patient Community
At Rush, our patients are the focus of all that we do. Our programs in primary care, cancer, orthopedics, neurosciences, cardiac care, women’s and newborn specialty care and geriatrics drive patient care. But new opportunities to explore multidisciplinary or even multi-institution cooperation arise every day. Support from our corporate and foundation partners ensures we may take advantage of every opportunity to benefit Chicago's entire patient community.
| "Illinois Children's Healthcare Foundation is proud to support Rush University Medical Center's Mothers' Milk Club. By supporting this program, we are helping to ensure that very low-birth-weight infants get the best possible start in life. Illinois Children's Healthcare Foundation is committed to improving the health of all Illinois children, and Rush University Medical Center has been a great partner in achieving this goal." — Bob Egan, program officer, Illinois Children's Healthcare Foundation |
Rush's accomplished staff of physicians and researchers is already creating breakthroughs that will have an immediate impact on the patient population. Our translational research — moving discoveries quickly from the lab to the patient's bedside to the broader health care community and back again — is informing better care, not just for patients at Rush, but for patients everywhere. Seventy percent of Rush's research is funded by the National Institutes of Health — the gold standard for medical research. To build on that reputation, corporate and foundation support of our research initiatives, especially in their earliest stages, is essential. With your help, we can build a healthier tomorrow for all patients.
