Activities Coordinator

CHC is licensed by the Illinois Department of Public Health for 67 beds and continues to serve infants and children while being driven by our three core values: compassion, innovation, and holistic care. As our services evolved over the years, there were also many changes within the facility. The increased level of care resulted in the need for additional professional and licensed staff. The new additions to the staff included Respiratory Therapists, Trach Wound Nurses, Certified Nursing Assistants (CNAs), Physical Therapists, Certified Occupational Therapist Assistants, a Registered Dietitian, and a Psychologist.
