2 RiversideHealthcare.org At some point in life, nearly every family is touched by a behavioral health challenge. It may be a teenager struggling with anxiety, a parent carrying more stress than they can manage alone, a loved one facing addiction, or an older adult navigating grief and depression. These experiences often happen quietly, but they affect individuals, families, workplaces, schools, and communities every day. At Riverside Healthcare, we believe mental health is an essential part of overall health. Caring for the whole person means caring for both physical and behavioral well-being—and ensuring that individuals have access to compassionate, high-quality care close to home. That commitment has never been more important. A multiphase renovation Across the nation, demand for behavioral health services continues to grow, while many communities face limited access to care. In response, Riverside is making the largest behavioral health investment in its history to expand access, modernize care environments, and strengthen the future behavioral health workforce. Today, Riverside’s inpatient behavioral health services care for patients from more than 70 Illinois counties and over 330 ZIP codes. For many individuals and families, particularly those in rural communities, Riverside provides access to specialized care that may not otherwise be available nearby. Riverside’s comprehensive behavioral health services include inpatient care for adolescents, adults, and seniors; outpatient and day treatment Healing begins here Riverside Healthcare’s vision for the future of behavioral health programs; addiction and dual-diagnosis services; schoolbased support programs; services for people with autism; and community-based intervention programs. At the center of Riverside’s vision is a major modernization of its inpatient behavioral health units. The current 64-bed department serves patients across dedicated adolescent, adult, and geriatric units, but many of the spaces were originally built decades ago. Through a multiphase renovation, Riverside will create environments designed to better support privacy, safety, dignity, and healing. Planned improvements include expanded private patient rooms, therapeutic treatment spaces, de-escalation areas, enhanced safety features, and modernized care environments tailored to the unique needs of each patient population. Beyond hospital walls Riverside continues to invest in programs that help individuals access support earlier and remain connected to care throughout their recovery journey. From schoolbased initiatives and community outreach programs to Partial Hospitalization Programs, Intensive Outpatient Programs, addiction “Behavioral health affects every family, every workplace, every school, and every community. As the need for these services continues to grow, Riverside has a responsibility to ensure individuals and families can access compassionate, high-quality care close to home. This investment reflects our long-standing commitment to caring for the whole person and creating an environment where healing, hope, and recovery can thrive for generations to come.” —Phil Kambic, President and CEO, Riverside Healthcare You can help support the future of behavioral health Riverside Healthcare Foundation’s Behavioral Health Campaign is helping transform care across our region through facility modernization, expanded services, workforce development, and community-based programs.

Follow Us Remarkable care, right where you live Cancer: It’s a word you hope you never have to hear, yet it has affected all of our lives in some way. Whether you’ve been diagnosed yourself or supported a loved one, cancer has likely had some impact on your journey. Because we know each journey is different, our team at Riverside Cancer Institute works with each patient to determine a treatment plan specific to them. This is possible through our comprehensive cancer care model, which not only includes doctors and nurses, but also radiation therapists, medical assistants, navigators, pharmacists and pharmacy technicians, laboratory technicians, social workers, dietitians, pastoral care, and authorization specialists. “This whole team has been awesome,” says Ericka Esters, who is featured on the cover and shares her story on page 4. “I highly recommend Riverside’s Cancer Institute.” Ericka had a treatment plan that included care from Riverside’s partnership with Rush University Medical Center, as well as Brachytherapy, which is now offered at Riverside. Since Ericka lives and works in Kankakee, she explains that receiving treatment at the Cancer Institute in nearby Bourbonnais was very helpful. Experiences like Ericka’s mean the world to us. Providing access to high-quality care close to home is Riverside’s priority, and this drives us to serve the needs of patients throughout the counties of Kankakee, Iroquois, Will, Grundy, and beyond—because remarkable care should never be out of reach. We thank you for continuing to trust us with your care. Thanks for reading, and be healthy. Phil Kambic President and CEO, Riverside Healthcare treatment services, and applied behavioral analysis therapy, Riverside is working to ensure behavioral healthcare is accessible throughout the region. The future of behavioral healthcare also depends on the people who provide it.

4 RiversideHealthcare.org A cancer diagnosis can turn life upside down in a moment. For Ericka Esters, a mother of five from Kankakee County, that moment came after months of severe symptoms and uncertainty. What followed was a challenging treatment journey supported by a team she says made all the difference. When answers finally came Esters’ symptoms began with extreme bleeding that often caused her to lose consciousness. Ambulance rides from her home or work became routine. “There was nothing I could do to stop the bleeding,” she says. “It just had to resolve on its own.” Emergency room visits and blood transfusions became part of daily life. Initial concerns pointed to fibroids, but additional testing revealed the true cause: cervical cancer. Compassionate care at Her gynecologist referred her to Summer Dewdney, MD, a gynecologic oncologist from Rush University Medical Center who also sees patients at Riverside Healthcare. Even before a biopsy confirmed the diagnosis, Esters sensed what was coming. “I could already tell that it was cancer,” she says. Finding comfort in unexpected places Walking into Riverside Cancer Institute for the first time felt overwhelming. “Every time I heard the name, I thought, ‘This is really happening,’” Esters recalls. What she found, however, surprised her. “It’s not a sad place to be,” she says. “You would think it would be, but the staff are always positive and caring.” Ericka’s story
Fall-Winter 2026 5 Riverside Cancer Institute procedures that delivered radiation directly to the tumor. Today, she continues immunotherapy treatments every six weeks, with care expected to continue through summer 2027. Leaning on others Support comes from every direction. Family members have stood beside her, co-workers from River Valley Special Recreation and Kankakee Public Library checked in regularly, and friends organized meal deliveries and gift cards. Both employers reassured her that her job would be waiting when she was ready to return. “Cancer takes you out of your comfort zone,” Esters says. “You realize how much you need other people. I couldn’t have done it alone.” Celebrating progress When Esters completed radiation therapy, her care team surprised her with a bell-ringing ceremony to celebrate the milestone. They also presented her with a diploma recognizing her accomplishment. “It was just so beautiful how they all made me feel,” she says. “They really care about their patients.” From reception staff and volunteers to infusion nurses, she felt supported from day one. Team members remembered her favorite snacks and drinks, helping create a sense of normalcy during treatment. “They’d ask, ‘Are you ready for your Oreos? Are you ready for your Pepsi?’ It made me feel comfortable.” That compassion extended to every interaction. During an early consultation, radiation oncologist Issra Rashed, MD, recognized that Esters was feeling overwhelmed and paused the conversation until she was ready to continue. “I really appreciated that,” Esters says. A comprehensive treatment plan Esters’ treatment included radiation therapy five days a week for six weeks, along with weekly chemotherapy treatments. Chemo days often lasted several hours, so she came prepared with books, work, coffee, and anything else she needed to pass the time. Throughout treatment, nurses explained each step before it happened. “They always told you what they were doing and what medication they were giving you,” she says. “That was reassuring.” After completing chemotherapy and radiation, Esters underwent two Brachytherapy Make your health a priority Talk with your primary care or women’s health provider about routine screenings, such as Pap smears.

6 RiversideHealthcare.org A concussion happens when a bump or jolt causes the brain to move inside the skull. Concussions are often associated with fall and winter sports such as football, soccer, cheerleading, and hockey. Even what seems like a minor hit to the head can result in a concussion. Protecting yourself and your family Not every concussion can be prevented, but you can take steps to reduce the risk: ● Wear properly fitted protective equipment, including helmets, when appropriate for your sport or activity. ● Learn and follow safe playing techniques and the rules of the game. ● Encourage coaches, athletes, and parents to take concussion concerns seriously. ● Stay physically active to maintain strength, balance, and coordination. Recognizing the signs Concussion symptoms can appear immediately or develop over the hours and days following an injury. Common signs include: ● Headache ● Dizziness ● Nausea or vomiting ● Confusion or difficulty concentrating ● Sensitivity to light or noise ● Blurred vision ● Changes in mood or sleep patterns ● Neck pain ● Head tenderness ● Loss of consciousness, although this does not occur in every concussion Athletes should never return to play until they have been evaluated and cleared by a healthcare professional. Early evaluation can help ensure the injury is properly managed and reduce the risk of complications. “Parents, coaches, teammates, and athletes all play an important role in concussion safety. When everyone understands the signs and symptoms of concussion, we can create a safer environment for athletes of all ages,” says Snigdha Kalidindi, MD, a sports medicine provider with Riverside Orthopedic Specialists. “As sports medicine providers, our goal is to help athletes recover fully and return safely to the activities they love. Recognizing concussion symptoms early and seeking prompt evaluation are key steps in protecting long-term brain health.” Keep brain health top of mind From youth leagues and school athletics to recreational sports and weekend competition, physical activity offers tremendous health benefits. But it’s important to recognize the signs of a concussion and respond appropriately when one occurs. Most people recover fully with proper care, and early treatment can help them return safely to the activities they enjoy. If you notice signs and symptoms of concussion, seek prompt medical attention. For severe symptoms, go to the Riverside emergency room right away.

Fall-Winter 2026 7 What is microsurgery? Microsurgery uses a powerful microscope and specialized tools to connect tiny blood vessels, some smaller than a strand of hair, to move healthy tissue from one area of the body to another to repair areas damaged by injury, surgery, or disease. “Microsurgery allows you to take tissue from somewhere it’s expendable, like the abdomen or thigh, and move it anywhere in the body where you need it,” explains Alec Fisher, MD, a plastic surgeon with Riverside Healthcare. This approach is especially valuable for reconstruction of the breast after mastectomy and for treating severe wounds or traumatic injuries that may not heal on their own. Helping patients heal after serious injuries For patients with major injuries involving exposed bone, damaged tissue, or surgical hardware, microsurgery can provide a path to healing. By transferring healthy tissue to the injured area, surgeons can protect the wound, reduce infection risk and, in some cases, help save a limb. Dr. Fisher can use microsurgical techniques to treat complex wounds throughout the body, including the Microsurgery for breast reconstruction and trauma recovery scalp, face, arms, legs, and abdomen. The goal is not only healing but also restoring function and achieving natural-looking results. A team approach to recovery Microsurgery is part of a larger team effort at Riverside. Dr. Fisher works alongside trauma surgeons, breast surgeons, nurses, therapists, and other specialists to support patients throughout their recovery. “Patients need more than just surgery,” he says. “We work together to help them return home and move forward.” For Dr. Fisher, bringing microsurgery to Riverside means patients can receive advanced treatment while staying close to the people who support them most. “We can take care of patients right where they live, so they don’t have to travel far from home,” he says.

8 RiversideHealthcare.org Protein is an essential building block for muscle and strength. It also helps you feel full after meals, which can assist with prevention of overeating and weight management and loss. “Previous recommendations for protein intake were too low. We now know that protein recommendations need to be higher,” says Erin Walker, Chief Clinical Dietitian at Riverside Healthcare. How much protein should I eat? Protein serving goals: 1.2–1.6 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight per day, adjusted as needed based on individual calorie goals. When consuming foods throughout the day, consider your serving sizes instead of counting grams of protein. The servings below provide around 7 grams of protein each: ● 1 ounce of meat, poultry, or fish ● ½ cup cooked beans or lentils ● 1 egg ● 2 tablespoons of nut butter or peanut butter ● 1 ounce of seeds or nuts ● ¼ cup of tofu or cooked tempeh ● 1 cup low-fat or nonfat milk ● 1 ounce of low-fat cheese Based on your age or medical conditions, you may need more or less than recommended above. Talk with your doctor and/or a dietitian about your individual needs. Choose healthy protein sources Choose foods high in protein that are both nutrient-dense and low in saturated fat, such as fatty fish like salmon and tuna, beans, peas, lentils, nuts, seeds, unprocessed poultry, and low-fat dairy. “Adequate protein intake at meal and snack times can help you stay full and prevent you from overeating, which will assist with weight How much should I eat?

If you have a history of kidney disease, too much can be harmful. If you are overweight or obese, discuss your individual protein needs with a registered dietitian.

10 RiversideHealthcare.org Atrial fibrillation, often called AFib, is one of the most common heart rhythm disorders, affecting millions of Americans. It occurs when the upper chambers of the heart, known as the atria, beat irregularly and out of sync with the lower chambers, disrupting the heart’s normal rhythm. “Atrial fibrillation is a condition where the top part of the heart, which is the atria, is fibrillating, which is quivering,” says Riverside Heart & Vascular Institute electrophysiologist Abhimanyu Beri, MD. “In the normal sequence of events, the top and the bottom of the heart should be beating in sync.” While some people experience noticeable symptoms, others may not realize they have AFib. Common symptoms can include heart palpitations, shortness of breath, fatigue, dizziness, and chest discomfort. In some cases, AFib may go undetected until it causes a more serious complication, such as a stroke. Risk factors Certain factors can increase the risk of developing AFib, including advancing age, diabetes, obesity, untreated sleep apnea, heart failure, excessive alcohol consumption, and family history. Fortunately, AFib can be diagnosed through an electrocardiogram (EKG) or heart monitoring devices that track the heart’s rhythm over time. Once diagnosed, treatment plans are customized to each patient’s individual needs. Options may include medications to control heart rate or reduce stroke risk, blood thinners, advanced procedures, or devices designed to help prevent stroke. Technology and expertise Riverside offers advanced AFib treatment options, including catheter ablation and the WATCHMAN device, which may help certain patients Understanding atrial fibrillation: When your heart falls out of rhythm reduce their stroke risk without the need for lifelong blood thinner medication. “Treatment needs to be individualized to every patient,” Dr. Beri says. “We definitely encourage patients to meet with their doctor. We are always available for consultation to help guide the most appropriate care for our patients.” If you experience symptoms or have concerns about your heart health, talk with your healthcare provider. Early diagnosis and treatment can help reduce complications while improving quality of life. Need a provider? Find one in our online provider directory at RiversideHealthcare.org/providers.
Fall-Winter 2026 11 Imagine a situation where you’re experiencing a non-life-threatening illness or injury. Maybe it’s the weekend or an evening, and your primary care office is closed. Do you wait until they reopen? Do you head for the emergency room? The best option in this scenario is to go to immediate care, which sees patients 18 months and older for cold and flu symptoms, UTIs, and much more. “We can evaluate and treat a wide range of illnesses and injuries,” says Cheryl Hansen, nurse practitioner with Riverside Immediate Care. “We perform x-rays, lab testing, minor laceration repairs, treatment for work-related injuries, and much more. Another misconception is that patients need an appointment. We welcome walkins as well.” Appointments can, however, be made in advance through myRiverside MyChart, which also connects the immediate care staff to your health record—creating a seamless sequence of care. Save time and money Immediate care services In addition to the services listed above, immediate care can also see patients for: ● Sprains and strains ● Headaches and back pain ● Poison ivy ● Allergies and minor allergic reactions ● School and sports physicals ● Sinus infections ● Pink eye (conjunctivitis) ● Stitches for lacerations/basic cuts ● Splinter removal ● Ear infections ● On-site labs and x-ray Saving time and money In situations that are urgent but not emergencies, it is best to go to immediate care as opposed to the emergency room. Doing so can save time and money. “One patient came in after a fall and was convinced that they’d need to spend hours sitting in the ER and incur a large bill,” says Hansen. “We were able to evaluate the injury and get some x-rays there on-site. Then we were able to diagnose, provide the treatment, and even coordinate his follow-up care all in one visit. He was genuinely surprised by how much we could accomplish in immediate care and how much time and money was saved.” with immediate care Need immediate care?

12 RiversideHealthcare.org As families settle into the routines of the school year and the fall season begins, it’s common to see more illnesses in children and adults alike. Between classrooms, extracurricular activities, and cooler weather keeping more people indoors, germs have plenty of opportunities to spread. While sniffles and sick days are often part of the season, there are steps you can take to stay healthy and know when to seek medical care. “By the time we get into September and October, we’re often seeing more patients with colds, sore throats, and other seasonal illnesses,” says Payal Patel, MD, a primary care provider (PCP) with Riverside Healthcare. “The return to school brings people together in close contact, which can make it easier for viruses to spread. Fortunately, there are simple ways families can help reduce their risk.” Common fall illnesses As the school year gets underway, PCPs often see an increase in: ● Common colds ● Strep throat ● Influenza (flu) ● Respiratory illnesses ● Stomach bugs Healthy habits help The good news is that small habits can make a big difference in preventing illness. Families can help reduce the spread of germs by: ● Washing hands frequently with soap and water ● Covering coughs and sneezes with a tissue or elbow ● Staying home when sick Getting into the swing of the school year ● Cleaning high-touch surfaces ● Getting enough sleep each night ● Eating a balanced diet and staying hydrated ● Getting recommended vaccines, including the annual flu vaccine “Healthy habits are important yearround, but they become especially vital during the fall and winter months,” Dr. Patel says. “Taking care of your overall health helps support your immune system and can reduce the spread of illness to others.” Check in with your PCP As the school year gets underway, make sure your family is up-to-date on annual wellness visits, recommended screenings, and vaccinations. Having a PCP means you’ll have someone who knows your health history and can help guide you through both seasonal illnesses and long-term health needs. “If you haven’t seen your primary care provider in a while, fall is a great time to schedule a visit,” says Dr. Patel. “Primary care isn’t just about treating illness, it’s about helping you stay healthy throughout every season of life.” Keep your family healthy this fall Stay well To schedule an appointment with a Riverside Healthcare primary care provider, visit myrhc.net/acceptingnew, schedule through MyChart or call your local Riverside primary care office.
Fall-Winter 2026 13 When you stay in the hospital, a team of healthcare professionals works together to care for you. One important member of that team is a hospitalist—a physician who specializes in caring for patients while they are in the hospital. “The hospitalist model is considered a best practice in healthcare because it allows physicians to focus entirely on the needs of hospitalized patients,” says Ellen Bollino, Chief Nursing Officer at Riverside Healthcare. “Having dedicated hospitalists available throughout the day helps improve communication among the care team and supports a safer, more coordinated experience for patients and families.” At Riverside Healthcare, several hospitalist programs help provide expert care for patients of all ages. Advance Inpatient Medicine (AIM) hospitalists Riverside’s AIM hospitalists care for adult patients who are admitted to the hospital. They round on patients daily; oversee treatment plans; and coordinate care with specialists, nurses, therapists, and case managers. A key part of their role is maintaining communication with a patient’s primary care provider. By sharing important information about a patient’s hospital stay and discharge plan, AIM hospitalists Meet the hospitalists: Specialized care during your hospital stay help ensure a smooth transition back to outpatient care and support continuity of care after patients return home. Pediatric hospitalists Through Riverside’s partnership with UChicago Medicine Comer Children’s Hospital, pediatric hospitalists provide specialized inpatient care for children who need hospitalization. These physicians are specially trained in caring for infants, children, and adolescents, and they work closely with a child’s pediatrician or primary care provider. This partnership allows children to receive expert pediatric care close to home while benefiting from the expertise and resources of a nationally recognized children’s hospital. OB hospitalists Riverside recently partnered with OB Hospitalist Group (OBHG) to provide dedicated OB hospitalist coverage on labor and delivery. OB hospitalists are board-certified obstetricians and gynecologists who are available around the clock to respond to urgent situations and support patients during labor and delivery. They work alongside Riverside Women’s Health providers and care teams to give an additional layer of support and immediate physician availability when needed. Patients continue to receive prenatal care from their chosen Riverside provider throughout pregnancy. Many Riverside Women’s Health providers continue to participate in the labor and delivery call schedule, while OB hospitalists help expand coverage and enhance patient safety by ensuring expert obstetric care is always available in the hospital.

14 RiversideHealthcare.org G L I V I N 34 When people think about mental health treatment, they often think about doctors, therapists, medications, and counseling. While those things are essential, another factor plays a powerful role in recovery: the environment itself. For people going through a mental health crisis, the space around them can affect how safe, comfortable, and supported they feel. Studies show that well-designed behavioral health spaces can support healing by lowering stress, helping people sleep better, and encouraging them to take part in treatment. Therapeutic spaces This idea is guiding how Riverside Healthcare is planning for the future of behavioral healthcare. While many hospitals are cutting back on behavioral health services, Riverside is investing nearly $30 million to expand and update its inpatient behavioral health units. The project started in fall 2025 and will turn units built in 1973 into modern, therapeutic spaces for today’s patients. Thoughtful details Modern behavioral healthcare recognizes that recovery is influenced not only by clinical treatment, but also by the environment in which that treatment occurs. That’s why every detail of Riverside’s redesign has been carefully considered, from more private patient rooms and specialized spaces for geriatric patients to calming colors and flexible layouts that better support individual treatment needs. A standout feature of the new units is a lighting system that copies natural daylight. This circadian lighting will get brighter during the day and dimmer at night, helping patients keep healthy sleep patterns, which is important for mental health and recovery. “When someone needs inpatient care, it’s often because they are at one of the most vulnerable moments in their life,” says Rebecca Schiltz, Vice President of Post-Acute Services. “They deserve a space that helps them feel safe, respected, and supported as they begin the healing process.” Expected to be completed in 2027, the project demonstrates Riverside’s commitment to ensuring individuals and families have access to highquality behavioral healthcare close to home in an environment designed to promote healing, dignity, and hope.
