About this organization
Mission
La Rabida Children’s Hospital is dedicated to maintaining and improving the quality of life for each of our patients with complex conditions, disabilities, and chronic illness. The only hospital of its kind in Chicago, La Rabida provides a place of hope for all children with lifelong medical conditions. Our mission to serve patients regardless of their families' ability to pay remains the same. No child is ever turned away due to financial circumstances.
About
The primary service provided by La Rabida is inpatient services to children with chronic illnesses and disabilities. In fiscal year 2019 we had 262 admissions and 9,994 patient days of care. La Rabida Children's Hospital serves these children regardless of race, creed, sex, national origin, or ability to pay and is the most Medicaid dependent hospital in the State of Illinois, with more than 92% of its patient days of care rendered for Medicaid program beneficiaries. La Rabida Children's Hospital is a local expert and provides a site of training for residents and medical students. We train nearly 45 physician residents and medical students each year from the University of Chicago. La Rabida is also a training site for nursing, rehabilitation therapists, social work, psychology and respiratory therapy students. The Hospital works to ensure that all Hospital staff, both clinical and non-clinical, receives education on how to make the hospital a safe place for children. This includes quality initiatives for infection control, certification classes in CPR and Pediatric Advanced Life Support (PALS), running mock codes, classroom lectures for nurses, emergency preparedness training, and meetings on education and research. La Rabida also holds in-services as warranted for new products, policies and event-related occurrences.
