Loretto Hospital is a 187-bed, not-for-profit acute care facility located in the Austin neighborhood of Chicago. It serves patients from across the city and several western suburbs and emphasizes quality-driven care. The hospital is described as the largest non-governmental employer in Austin, a community area with more than 117,000 residents. The hospital relies on an interdisciplinary staff, including registered nurses, licensed practical nurses, certified nursing assistants, technologists, technicians, therapists, social workers, counselors, and pharmacists, to support a broad range of services—from outpatient and short-stay medical-surgical care to emergency and intensive care. It maintains active community involvement, linking community leaders with hospital officials through the Advisory Council, Clergy Advisory Council, and Board of Trustees to shape programs and services, and sponsors free health screenings and workshops. In 2025, Loretto Hospital launched a Women’s Wellness Center as part of its community-based initiatives.
