The Andrew F. Anderson Emergency Center

Built for You

Rhode Island Hospital opened a new emergency center in 2005 to better serve the thousands of patients we care for every year. This new facility was built for you, so that you and your family receive the best care when you need it.

As the state's only Level I trauma center, we have the expert staff and state-of-the-art technology to treat people with the most critical injuries and illnesses. This new, more spacious emergency department is designed to care for 110,000 patients a year, twice as many patients as our old center. More room means increased privacy for patients as well as reduced waiting times. In addition, we've added new, larger operating rooms complete with the latest surgical equipment.

While all of us hope that we'll never need the services of an emergency center, it's comforting to know that a great facility is right here when you need it most.
