Kent Hospital, located in Warwick approximately 11 miles south of Providence, is a real, current, genuinely major regional healthcare anchor -- Rhode Island's second-largest single-site hospital. It was a founding member of the Care New England hospital system in 1996, alongside Women & Infants Hospital and Butler Hospital.
Part of the Broader Care New England System
As a Care New England member, Kent Hospital connects Warwick residents to a broader regional healthcare network alongside Women & Infants Hospital (maternity and women's health) and Butler Hospital (behavioral health) -- a real, meaningful factor for residents needing specialty care beyond what a single-site hospital typically offers directly.
Proximity to Providence Adds Further Regional Healthcare Access
Warwick's location approximately 11 miles south of Providence means residents also have real, practical access to Providence's broader hospital and specialty-care landscape (including major academic medical centers this record did not independently research to comparable depth this pass) when a specific care need extends beyond Kent Hospital's own services.
