Edward-Elmhurst Health is committed to keeping our community healthy. Our healthcare team is setting the standard with community-connected care that meets the needs of every patient.

"One of the things I’m most excited about is our mutual commitment to our communities. A prominent feature of our merger is the creation of new community investment funds. Each organization has committed $100 million to our respective communities.

These funds will generate millions of dollars annually to enhance health and well-being, advance health equity and support local economic growth."

- J.P. Gallagher, President and CEO of NorthShore – Edward-Elmhurst Health
