Mission

See Schedule O.La Rabida Children's Hospital (LRCH) provides specialized, family-centered health care to children with medically complex conditions, disabilities, and chronic illness. Through expertise, compassion, and advocacy we help children and their families reach their fullest potential, regardless of their ability to pay.

To provide specialized health care to children with medically complex conditions.

  • The primary service provided by La Rabida is inpatient services to children with chronic illnesses and disabilities. In fiscal year 2024 we had 177 admissions and 11,260 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.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us.
