The short answer
Record last released by Illinois Department of Public Health, Office of Health Care Regulation on May 1, 2026.
- Not rated by Medicare: CMS rates only the providers it certifies, and this one isn’t Medicare-certified
- Not read what inspectors found: the state’s list doesn’t carry it
Each figure’s source sits beside it, in its section below.
What these words mean3
- Not read
- The file this site reads doesn’t carry what inspectors found, so nothing is counted here. It doesn’t mean the place has a clean record: the state’s own site may have its reports. Source: How this site reads each source.
- Inspection (survey)
- A visit by state inspectors, often unannounced, who check a place against the rules it must meet. For nursing homes and other places Medicare pays, CMS calls these visits surveys: a standard survey of a nursing home comes at least every 15 months, and a complaint survey whenever a complaint calls for one. Source: CMS; 42 CFR 488.308.
- Deficiency, citation, violation
- What inspectors write up when a place didn’t meet a rule: the rule, what they saw, and when. CMS calls it a deficiency; states may say citation or violation. It is the inspectors’ finding, not a court’s, and the place is usually asked for a plan to correct it. Source: CMS, statement of deficiencies (Form CMS-2567); each state’s licensing agency.
What did inspectors find?
IDPH’s Hospital Directory carries no inspection results, so this page can’t say what inspectors found. The Department of Public Health licenses and inspects the hospitals it lists.

How do patients fare?
- CMS rates only Medicare-certified hospitals, so no CMS rating is shown here; Illinois publishes no rating in this list.
Is it licensed, or certified?
- Hospital, licensed by Illinois’s Department of Public Health.
- Illinois’s directory gives no Medicare number, and CMS’s files of the hospitals Medicare certifies (Care Compare, the Provider of Services file and its rehabilitation and long-term care hospital lists) don’t hold it by either of its names in its city or its street, so it isn’t Medicare-certified. CMS’s files list only the hospitals Medicare certifies, so no CMS CMS rates some kinds of place from 1 to 5 stars, more stars meaning better on CMS’s own measures for that kind: for a nursing home, its health inspections, staffing and quality measures. A rating is CMS’s summary of those measures; it doesn’t promise good care. Source: CMS, Care Compare and the Five-Star Quality Rating System., survey or inspection covers this one, and none is shown or compared.
- Illinois’s licence number: 0005512, valid to May 14, 2027.
- IDPH’s facility type: Psychiatric Hospital.

Has the state acted against it?
- IDPH’s Hospital Directory carries no enforcement actions.
What do patients say about their care?
- Illinois publishes no staffing levels in this list, and CMS’s staffing measures cover only certified hospitals.
Who owns it?
- Licensee: Springfield Hospital Inc.

How does it compare nearby?
- Not compared: CMS’s measures cover only the hospitals Medicare certifies, and this state’s list publishes no measure of its own to compare.
What the record doesn’t say
- Illinois licenses every hospital, and IDPH’s Hospital Directory lists each licence, but not which Medicare certifies. This page is one CMS’s files don’t hold by either of its names, its street or its number, and that a check row by row found in none of them, not a campus of a hospital CMS lists: so no CMS rating or inspection covers it.
- CMS’s files list only the hospitals Medicare certifies, so no CMS star rating, survey or inspection covers this one, and none is shown or compared.
- IDPH’s Hospital Directory carries no inspection results, so this page can’t say what inspectors found. The Department of Public Health licenses and inspects the hospitals it lists.
- IDPH’s directory is brought up to date a few times a year, so a licence it shows as expired may have been renewed since; IDPH’s own record has the current one.
