Healing Communities: Illinois Hospitals Are Making Sure Healthcare Is Accessible to Communities

Just last month, Loretto Hospital in Chicago’s Austin neighborhood opened a new Women’s Wellness Center designed to “reduce barriers to essential healthcare services for women who may face transportation, financial or cultural obstacles,” said Tesa Anewishki, the hospital’s president and CEO. “We believe that access and investment are the antidote to communities in crisis.”

Across Illinois, hospitals are finding ways to ensure anyone can access healthcare when they need it. Such efforts are part of how Illinois hospitals care for their communities beyond the 24/7 health services provided within their facilities.

Other examples of Illinois hospitals providing accessible care include:

• Sarah Bush Lincoln Hospital in Mattoon using a mobile mammography unit to reach residents throughout central Illinois counties during April;
• Morris Hospital in Morris offering cardiac screenings at three high schools to detect cardiac issues among students and save young lives; and
• Memorial Health’s mobile crisis unit responding to 911 calls for mental health concerns alongside police officers, with 15 clinicians providing round-the-clock care in central Illinois.

Illinois hospitals are investing in community health and well-being. They’re partnering with community organizations to provide convenient, accessible care and free health services. Learn more about how Illinois hospitals are healing communities.
