Community Benefit Report

Advocate Sherman Hospital community benefit report

Advocate Sherman Hospital offers an array of health and wellness programs accessible to the community at a number of locations. In addition, many of our employees give time and talent as dedicated volunteers in our community. And, where possible, we support local causes and offer services free of charge or at a discount simply because it is the right thing to do.

We base our services and offerings on the health care needs of the communities we serve. Over the years, we have hosted hundreds of wellness classes/events and served thousands of people, from new moms to seniors. Links to our most recent community needs assessments including those for Kane County and McHenry County are below.
