DOWNTOWN ORLAND PARK

UNIVERSITYOFCHICAGO CENTERFOR ADVANCEDMEDICINE in Orland Park

A recent career search on the site showed that there are still positions available for registered nurses, medical assistants, pharmacy positions, ultrasound technicians and more. The facility will have 80 exam rooms that will support services such as primary care, medical oncology, radiation oncology, orthopedics, gastroenterology, cardiology, women’s health and comprehensive diabetes. Rotating specialties such as urology and surgical consulting will also be offered. CVS Health will be located on the first floor of the facility. The facility is scheduled to open later this year.

The newest addition to downtown Orland Park is quickly taking shape at the northwest corner of 143rd and LaGrange Road. The 108,000-square-foot, four-story outpatient medical facility is University of Chicago Medicine’s largest off-site location, expanding the institution’s footprint in the Southwest suburbs. The project has generated more than 200 construction jobs, and the center is expected to employ more than 100 people, 70 percent of whom will be newly hired employees. Information regarding open positions can be found online at ucmcareers.com/careers/.

Once completed later this year, the 108,000 square foot facility will bring a number of medical specialties to Orland Park. The project and its adjacent parking structure have brought more than 200 construction jobs to Orland Park.
