Why be a part of the Shirley Ryan AbilityLab team?

Ranked #1 in rehabilitation by U.S. News & World Report since 1991, Shirley Ryan AbilityLab is the first-ever “translational” research hospital where clinicians, scientists, innovators and technologists work together in the same space, applying research in real time to physical medicine and rehabilitation. The central goal of the translational approach is to develop new research and insights to help patients gain more function, achieve better outcomes and enjoy greater ability and independence.

Did you know Shirley Ryan AbilityLab is a 501c3 not-for-profit?

At Shirley Ryan AbilityLab, we not only care for patients, but also help them return to full lives. To meet this goal, we offer a number of programs designed to enhance the quality of life for people who have lost ability due to serious injury or chronic conditions.

These programs are unique, but many are not covered by insurance. Your support makes these programs possible.
