The Medical Center also offers more than 70 highly selective residency and fellowship programs in medical and surgical specialties and subspecialties.

In addition to its mission in patient care, education and research, the Medical Center maintains a strong commitment to the community. RUSH reaches out to the Chicago community through offerings such as the RUSH Community Services Initiatives Program, an umbrella for several student-led outreach programs designed to address the social and health care needs of residents in neighboring communities.

At RUSH Copley Medical Center, patients experience a unique blend of leading-edge medicine and the heartfelt compassion of dedicated professionals in a community hospital setting.

Meeting the health care needs of a growing and diverse community, we offer advanced care in heart and vascular, cancer, women's health, emergency services, orthopedics and neuroscience. Safe, quality care is our focus, and nearly all of our outcomes often exceed national standards.

RUSH Copley is widely considered one of the most impressive health care facilities in the Midwest. A ranch-style, two-story building with convenient patient care entrances, our hospital is situated on 98 acres of beautiful landscape, offering spectacular views from patient rooms, all of which are private. The hospital's many courtyards give visitors and patients a soothing respite amid natural settings.
