Abstract
When the Michael Reese Hospital and Medical Center, a teaching hospital in Chicago, was dedicated in October 1881, it had 70 beds and 5 staff physicians. Today, with 1,000 beds, Michael Reese is one of the largest private medical centers in the United States. Patients are served by a professional staff that includes more than 600 full-time practicing physicians, dentists, and research scientists; 300 interns, residents, and fellows; and 1,500 nursing personnel. The total number of full-time employees is 5,100; approximately 30 percent of these employees are in one of seven separate collective bargaining units.
