What Matters to You?

What matters to you?

Throughout this publication, we have shared stories about some of the things that really matter to us at Northwestern Memorial. Now we'd like to hear from you!

Please take a few moments to share a story about the things that matter most in your life. It might be your family, your dog, your photographs — or maybe that five minute walk around the block each night that allows you to be alone with your thoughts.

Thank you for participating!

Giving Back

What matters to me is maintaining my health and keeping up my level of interest. I’m retired, and you can get stagnant if you’re not careful. I’ve decided to do a little extra volunteer work and give some things back to the community that I’ve taken from it while I was working. I volunteer at the hospital as well as with the Blind Services Association reading to the blind and helping with day-to-day things like working with their checkbooks that they can’t do.
