Cadence Health's request to build a new cancer treatment center at Delnor passes on the City Council's consent agenda.
Easy peasy lemon squeezy. According to UsingEnglish.com, that's an American that means something "is very easy indeed." As a city construction approval process goes, the Cadence Health request to build a $20 million cancer treatment center probably qualifies. Cadence's request sailed through the Plan Commission, City Council Committee of the Whole and landed on the consent agenda Monday, without much of a peep. According to the summary by Community Development Director Dick Untch Cadence Health sought site-plan approval for additions to the north and south sides of the existing cancer center building. The proposed 25,950-square-foot addition and renovation of the existing building will create a single location for all of the medical …
Proposed $20 million addition moves to City Council Committee of the Whole April 23.
Plan Commission meetings always have the potential to be drawn-out affairs in which plans are scrutinized and 1,001 details—from window treatments to ingress and egress to parking spaces and setbacks—are discussed. Thursday's meeting was nothing like that. Plans for a $20 million addition to the Delnor Hospital cancer center gained unanimous blessing from the recommending body. Plans now go to the City Council Committee of the Whole, scheduled for April 23. Cadence Health, Delnor's newly branded parent company, is planning to build a 25,950-square-foot addition to the 9,084-square-foot existing building at 304 S. Randall Road. The purpose of the project is to provide a one-stop-shop cancer treatment facility. Presently, a number of cancer-…

WOW ... I'm so happy to hear this news. Hopefully if my cancer does return I can get treatment closer to home. The one stop shopping at Loyola is fabulous, but it's a haul when you are going in often. Between this and the Living Well Cancer Center that lends other types of support we'd be in real good shape. My son is a medical physicist (in radiation oncology) at Mercy Hospitals Hall Radiation … more ›
Delnor's merged partner, Central DuPage Hospital, has plans that include 25 more beds for the mental health and intensive care units. Delnor is also looking at a $20 million cancer treatment center in Geneva.
Crain’s Chicago Business is reporting that Cadence Health has applied to the state to increase the number of beds at Central DuPage Hospital in Winfield by 8 percent, to 338. Cadence has filed an application with the Illinois Health Facilities and Services Review Board, which regulates medical construction.

A press release issued today (Jan. 9) confirms that Delnor and Central DuPage Hospitals are marching to a new "Cadence." The brand is meant to differentiate the health system as integrated and locally focused.
Delnor Health System (Delnor) and Central DuPage Hospital (CDH) announced Monday that "Cadence Health" is the new name of the locally based health system created through their March 2011 merger. "The 'Cadence' name speaks to the reliability and consistency the health system demonstrates every day in providing patients with excellent, compassionate care," the release says. The combined health system, first announced on Oct. 5, 2010, will bring high quality, advanced, efficient care to a patient population of more than 1 million in Chicago's western suburbs. "Cadence Health is more than just a name, it's a signal of the bold vision we have set for ourselves and our unique capability to accomplish this vision," says Jill Brown, vice president…
