Rhode Island Hospital
The department of psychiatry at Rhode Island Hospital is one of the leading general hospital clinical, educational and research programs in the nation. Activities at Rhode Island Hospital and its pediatric arm, Hasbro Children's Hospital, include the full spectrum of psychiatric services for adults and children.
In addition to a psychiatric emergency program, which experiences nearly 10,000 visits each year, there are inpatient services for adults, a specialized geriatric unit, and psychiatric-pediatric programs which link inpatient, partial hospital and outpatient care. The Rhode Island Hospital psychiatry program employs more 95 full-time doctoral level psychiatrists and psychologists.
The Miriam Hospital
Similarly, expertise in community-based geriatric consultation and outpatient services not only provide important care but also will be an important partner as our health system more comprehensively addresses the needs of long-term care and community-based geriatric patients. The Miriam Hospital program is nationally recognized for expertise in the fields of behavioral medicine and geriatrics. The Centers for Behavioral and Preventive Medicine are one of Lifespan’s most successful research enterprises, with nationally renowned faculty in areas including weight management, exercise and management of high risk behaviors leading to health problems.
Bradley Hospital
Bradley Hospital, the nation's first psychiatric hospital devoted exclusively to children and adolescents, has been at the forefront in the treatment of children's mental illness for more than 75 years.
Programs at Bradley Hospital include inpatient, partial hospital, and outpatient, residential, and school. Learn more about all of our services. Along with Hasbro Children's Hospital, Bradley Hospital is the major training center for Alpert Medical School's Child and Adolescent Psychiatry Fellowship program, the triple board residency program and the psychology internship and postdoctoral fellowship program.
We are proud of our record in recruiting and retaining distinguished clinicians and scholars who are regarded as leaders in their respective fields. We are also proud of our efforts to decrease the stigma of mental illness.
