About us
Shirley Ryan AbilityLab, formerly the Rehabilitation Institute of Chicago (RIC), is the global leader in physical medicine and rehabilitation for adults and children with the most severe, complex conditions — from traumatic brain and spinal cord injury to stroke, amputation and cancer-related impairment. The quality of our care and research has led to the designation of “No. 1 Rehabilitation Hospital in America” by U.S. News & World Report every year since 1991. Upon opening in March 2017, our $550 million, 1.2-million-square-foot research hospital became the first-ever “translational” hospital in which clinicians, scientists, innovators and technologists work together in the same space, surrounding patients, discovering new approaches and applying (or “translating”) research real time. This unique model enables patients to have 24/7 access to the brightest minds, the latest research and the best opportunity for recovery. Interested in joining our team? By doing so, you will be part of our life-changing Mission and Vision. You’ll work in a truly inclusive environment where diversity and equity are championed through words and actions. You’ll contribute to an innovative culture that is second to none, one that embraces curiosity, discovery and compassion. You’ll play a role in something that’s never been done before as we integrate science and clinical care to help patients achieve better, faster outcomes — as we Advance Human Ability, together.

Three days after her 19th birthday, Hannah S. was in her college dorm room when she experienced a near-fatal brain bleed from an arteriovenous malformation (AVM). After a successful surgery and time in intensive care, Hannah came to Shirley Ryan AbilityLab for a 12-day inpatient stay followed by three months as an outpatient. Since then, Hannah has made a full recovery. Her dad, Steve, wanted to give back to Shirley Ryan AbilityLab “because of our incredible experience with the team who helped us through such a traumatic time.” Steve — who has run previous marathons — decided to join our team for the 2024 Bank of America Chicago Marathon on Sunday, Oct. 13. On race day, Steve’s family — including Hannah — will be on the sidelines to cheer him on. Here’s a shout out to all of the caregivers who support our patients each and every day!

By the time Megan H. discovered Shirley Ryan AbilityLab’s Pain Management Center, she was struggling to get out of bed most days. She had lived with chronic pain and flare-ups for more than 20 years. Megan participated in our four-week pain program, working with our interdisciplinary team of doctors, pain psychologists, physical therapists, occupational therapists and other specialists to learn strategies and techniques to help navigate daily pain. “I have ownership of the quality of my life and the confidence to better navigate it. For the first time in my adult life, I finally feel safe in my body,” said Megan. Read about her reframed mindset: bit.ly/3zASbfa #PainAwarenessMonth
