Our commitment to the Rockford community Over the past several months, we have met with and listened to the feedback of dozens of community leaders and hundreds of residents from throughout the Rockford region. Working together, we have developed a plan that centers around our commitment to continuing a vibrant Rockford Memorial Hospital campus on Rockton Avenue. To demonstrate our deep and abiding commitment to our legacy hospital, Rockford Memorial, the MercyRockford Health System Board of Directors unanimously approved the resolution below, which was presented to Rockford’s Mayor Morrissey and community leaders (pictured right) at a November 3 press conference. Today we are presenting our Board resolution to you, the citizens of Rockford.
