Description

When it comes to health and medical innovation, Sinai Health System of Chicago is one of the most respected names in the game. From its origin in 1919 as a sixty-bed hospital, to today, where its numerous arms provide a variety of equitable care and community outreach programs, Sinai has been an influential force in research, philanthropy, education, service, and medicine.

 In Medical Excellence for a Changing CommunityMax Westerman dives into the vibrant background and accomplishments of this powerhouse community hospital. Drawing on extensive research and over 100 interviews, Westerman explores its foundation as a Jewish care center, its evolution into an institution serving its Latino and black neighborhood, and its current achievements and accolades. He also examines its organization, multi-disciplinary divisions, administration, adaptability, and accountability.

This impeccable study is not only a captivating story of one institution's triumph, but a shining example for public health workers everywhere.
