Rush has built a strong Office of Community Health Equity and Engagement, and we founded the Rush BMO Institute of Health Equity. As part of our Anchor Mission strategy, we hire, invest, buy and source, and volunteer locally. We’ve invested more than $6 million on the West Side since 2018, and that number continues to grow every year. And, of course, we continue to provide excellent patient care for everyone who comes to Rush.
