herreradennis+FollowRoseland Hospital’s repeated failures put lives at riskA tragic incident at Roseland Community Hospital has reignited concerns about patient safety in Chicago’s South Side. After a man in mental health crisis was left unmonitored in the ER, he left and later was charged with killing his wife. This isn’t an isolated case—Roseland has received multiple “immediate jeopardy” citations for dangerous lapses, including preventable deaths and neglect.
