Academic medical center providing specialized care and research
"Joe Zucchero died on Wednesday, March 1, at Rush Medical Center in Chicago after fighting non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma for more than two decades." - Ashok Selvam
"In 2021 this medical center had at least one on-site food vendor cited for fruit-fly clusters; the cited vendor and the facility resolved the violation and passed a reinspection by year-end." - Naomi Waxman
"At the hospital where Velez was treated for COVID-19 I observed a prolonged, serious stay — he was placed on a ventilator, spent roughly 35 days hospitalized and at one point was in critical condition — followed by a celebrated discharge where staff gathered in the lobby to cheer as he left; he required home care after leaving Rush but doctors and family reported significant improvement." - Eater Staff
"A major medical center cited as one of the facilities served by the meal-delivery program, representing the organization’s partnerships with hospitals to meet patients’ nutritional needs." - Ashok Selvam
"After 35 days in the hospital where doctors treated him for COVID-19, Rush University Medical Center discharged Claudio Velez at 1 p.m. Thursday; he spent much of that time hooked up to a ventilator and was at one point listed in critical condition. Hospital staff gathered in the lobby to cheer as his son pushed him out in a wheelchair. Family members were unable to visit because of coronavirus safety protocols and relied on video chat, and he wasn’t able to speak for much of his stay; he will require home care but is feeling much better." - Ashok Selvam
