Rush University Medical Center of Chicago has been redesignated with ANCC Magnet Recognition Program® status, making it one of less than 50 hospitals in the country to have achieved redesignation. During the site visit in April, appraisers interviewed more than 350 staff members and visited 37 locations, including all nursing units within the hospital. According to a statement, the appraisers' evaluation included patient complaints, Rush's standing with professional regulatory organizations, and Rush's nursing standards with regard to improving the quality of patient care. Rush was first designated in 2002.
