Recently, we invested in advanced technology and in a better physical environment for both patients and staff. Patients and visitors now enter a dramatic three-story atrium with a water wall and fireplace; a business center allows visitors to use their time productively while a family member receives treatment. Among other improvements is the remodeling of the ambulatory surgery area to bring patient registration, operating rooms and a family lounge together in one convenient place.

Opened in 1977, NorthShore Glenbrook Hospital offers high-tech medical care in a community hospital setting.
