Survivors of sexual abuse at Hartgrove Hospital – a facility operated by Universal Health Services (UHS) – deserve justice, compassion, and unwavering legal support. Disturbing reports allege that patients, including vulnerable youth, suffered sexual assault, misconduct, and systemic negligence while under the care of this institution. If you or a loved one endured sexual abuse as a minor at Hartgrove Hospital, you have the right to demand accountability, and our firm is here to help you fight for the compensation and closure you deserve.
UHS, one of the largest psychiatric hospital chains in the United States, has recently faced numerous allegations of failing to protect patients from predatory staff, inadequate supervision, and institutional cover-ups. These failures represent a profound betrayal of trust, leaving survivors with lasting trauma.
Just as one example, in late 2024, an Illinois man sued Hartgrove Hospital and its parent company, alleging that staff members sexually abused him there as a child, according to The Chicago Tribune. He claimed multiple staff members abused him around 2001 and 2002 when he was about 11 to 13 years old.
In fact, the Illinois Department of Children and Family Services (DCFS) has issued citations in the past against Hartgrove Hospital for failing to sufficiently protect minor patients from harm.
