Name one Resource Hospital in the Chicago North EMS System.

• A. Northwestern Memorial Hospital.
• B. Rush University Medical Center.
• C. University of Chicago Medicine.
• D. Advocate Illinois Masonic Medical Center.

Answer: (D)

Resource Hospitals are designated facilities within the EMS system that provide advanced, specialized care and coordinate with EMS for the transport and management of high-acuity patients. In the Chicago North EMS System, Advocate Illinois Masonic Medical Center holds this designation, making it the expected example of a Resource Hospital. The other listed hospitals are major centers in the region but are not designated as Resource Hospitals within this system, so they don’t fulfill that specific role here.
