At John H. Stroger, Jr. Hospital of Cook County, our mission is to
provide high quality care for all pediatric patients regardless of their
parents' ability to pay. At Stroger Hospital, we meet the emergency, inpatient,
and critical care needs of acutely and chronically ill patients. As a part of
the Cook County Bureau of Health Services, we provide primary health care to
children from all walks of life and ethnic backgrounds. Stroger Hospital is the
only "safety-net" hospital in Chicago and has a long, proud tradition of
serving the neediest patients. We are "the" hospital for many families
who have been served by County physicians for generations.
At a time when public hospitals across the country are closing, Cook County has
built a new hospital. Building, too, on over a century of experience in urban
medicine, we are continuing to establish more community-based clinics to
improve the health of our neighborhoods.
We seek residents who possess a strong commitment to improving the lives of
underserved children and families in an urban environment. We expect most
graduates to enter primary care, well trained and prepared to serve the
community in which they will practice.
We hope that you can meet this challenge
and join our family.
