Former Providence City Hospital

This is a list of current and former hospitals in the U.S. state of Rhode Island. By default, the list is sorted alphabetically by name. This table also provides the hospital network of each hospital (if applicable), the city and county where it is located, whether or not it has an emergency department, when it was opened and closed, its current status, type, and former names.

  • Name: The most recent name of the hospital. Former names will be listed in the last column.
  • City, Town, or Neighborhood: The lowest level census designation of the hospital's most recent location.
  • Network: The parent organization or government agency in charge of the hospital. For closed hospitals, the network will retain its name at the time of closure and will not be updated if the network changes its name. Text will be italicized if the hospital is independent or if it is owned or operated by a public entity.
  • Emergency Department: Indicates the presence of an emergency department, along with trauma designation if applicable. "Former" if the hospital used to have one.
  • Opened-Closed: The years of operation.
    • Opened, when possible, specifically refers to the date on which the facility admitted its first patient.
  • Status / Type / Notes:
    • Status is in italics and is generally in reference to a hospital's inpatient operations: Active, Succeeded, or Closed. Marked "Fate Unknown" if the hospital is no longer in operation but it cannot be determined if it was closed or acquired.
    • Hospital type, when available, comes after Status. When applicable, the type will always reference data from the Massachusetts Center for Health Information and Analysis. As CHIA was formed in 2012, any hospitals which either closed before data was collected or which do not fall under its purview (such as federal facilities) will be given the most appropriate typing.
    • Notes will encompass all other appropriate information, including former names.

Note: Closures and opening dates, in the case where a hospital is acquired or merges with another, will be designated depending on how substantial the change is. For example, single hospitals purchased by a new entity will generally not be considered to have closed, however simultaneous mergers of multiple hospitals may be considered as a closure of the old hospitals and opening of a new facility. Additionally, a facility which is still in business is considered "closed" if a change in operation leads to the facility no longer meeting an arguable definition of "hospital."
