Employees Rally to Support Roseland Community Hospital

Wendy Jones remembers her mother suddenly suffering a heart attack while in the emergency room of Roseland Community Hospital (RCH) on Chicago’s far South Side. “The hospital staff acted quickly and saved her life,” said Jones on Friday outside the medical facility open at 45 W. 111th St. Jones said the encounter is the main reason she supports the 85-year-old medical facility. Outside the hospital, Jones joined about 150 other demonstrators, many with signs proclaiming “Roseland Matters” and “Black Lives Matter.”
