The hospital was established as the first African-American-owned and operated hospital in America. It has a long history of providing health care services to the residents of Cook County, particularly residents in the Grand Boulevard neighborhood and on the South Side of Chicago. The hospital is accredited by The Joint Commission and features a Regional Health Care Center that offers same-day surgery, comprehensive diagnostic imaging service, cardiac diagnostics, laboratory services, and rehabilitative services, as well as 16 medical specialties.
