Description

Continuing their mission of caring for the sick in their homes Little Company was the one of the first hospitals to offer hospice care to the metropolitan Chicago community in the 1970s Little Company experienced an even bigger first in 1950 when three of its physicians performed the very first human organ transplant of a kidney creating worldwide medical history
