For most, a blister or cut on the foot is a small inconvenience that a Band-Aid™ and time will heal, but that’s not the case for the 38.4 million Americans who have diabetes. Complications of diabetes, like neuropathy and peripheral vascular diseases, make feet vulnerable to ulcers that can lead to infection and even amputation. If you have a diabetes-related wound, Silver Cross Wound Healing and Hyperbaric Medicine can help!

We are deeply saddened by the passing of our very dear friend, Marilyn Kurtz.

The strong bond between Silver Cross and the Kurtz and Vana Family spans decades. Starting with Marilyn and Karl’s vision back in 1977 to enhance access to emergency care in our community by forming Kurtz Ambulance Service – to their unwavering support for our replacement hospital, which opened in 2012; a transformational gift for our Emergency Department in 2017 – the Kurtz & Vana Pavilion; and so much more.

Marilyn was known for her kindness, her compassion; her immeasurable generosity to so many; her community involvement; and her passion to help others here in New Lenox and far beyond.

We are grateful for her friendship, and we’ll miss her tremendously.

Our entire Silver Cross Family extends our deepest sympathies and prayers to her son Tom Vana, his wife Michele, her grandchildren, family and friends.

🚨 It’s National Patient Transport Week—and we’re rolling out the appreciation!

At Silver Cross, our incredible patient transport team is ALWAYS on the move—averaging over 500 transports a day! Whether it’s getting patients to imaging, lab tests, procedures, inpatient rooms, or the discharge lounge, they do it all with professionalism, compassion, and kindness.

In fact, by the end of our last fiscal year, they completed nearly 162,000 transports. That’s not just impressive—it’s essential. This team plays a vital role in patient care, throughput, and experience, and we couldn’t be more grateful.

💙 Thank you to our amazing transporters for keeping Silver Cross moving—literally!

Happy Rad Tech Week 2025! 🎉 Celebrating innovation, dedication, and the legacy of medical imaging.

We're incredibly proud of our outstanding team of medical imaging technologists at Silver Cross Hospital for their tireless commitment to excellence in patient care. Your adaptability and expertise continue to shine as healthcare evolves—and your role remains essential in delivering accurate, timely, and compassionate diagnostics.

This week, we also honor the remarkable history of radiologic technology:
✋1895: German physicist Wilhelm Conrad Roentgen discovered X-rays, capturing the first image of his wife's hand and revolutionizing medicine.
☢️1896–1901: Pioneers like Marie and Pierre Curie explored radioactivity, leading to early therapeutic uses of radium for conditions like lupus and cancer.
🧲1946: The discovery of nuclear magnetic resonance laid the groundwork for MRI technology.
🩻1970s: The invention of the CT scanner marked a golden era in radiology, offering unprecedented views inside the human body.
⚕️Today: Radiologic technologists use advanced tools like digital X-ray, CT, MRI, ultrasound, and nuclear medicine to support diagnosis and treatment across every corner of healthcare. And at Silver Cross, we've got the !

From Roentgen’s lab to today’s cutting-edge imaging suites, this field has come a long way—and our technologists continue to lead the charge. Thank you for your skill, compassion, and commitment to excellence.
