Name: Tim Rog
City: Chicago, IL, USA
Why his leadership matters to me:
I am the proud son and husband of a nurse. Nursing is one of the most under-appreciated professions in our society, and that lack of appreciation has become even more profound in the midst of a global pandemic. Tim is the Assistant Unit Director of the Surgical and Cardiovascular Intensive Care at Rush University Medical Center in Chicago. More importantly, he’s been a dear friend of mine for many years. He oversees multiple nursing units and 135 members of staff, and still remains directly involved in bedside care. The Rush health system has assumed the front line of Chicago’s battle with COVID-19, and the demand for traditional forms of care have not conveniently subsided as this profound challenge landed on our medical professionals. Tim’s units have courageously led the charge in this fight while also continuing to serve the expected needs of our community. He represents everything I love about the nursing profession, the City of Chicago, and about Midwestern pride and compassion. I want to extend my heartfelt gratitude to Tim, and to the entire nursing community that has bravely and tirelessly fought a virus that has shaken the foundation of our global community.
