PROVIDENCE – In response to increased need, Hasbro Children’s Hospital recently expanded its pediatric psychiatric treatment services in its collaborative venture with Bradley Hospital.

The Medical/Psychiatric Inpatient Program at Hasbro Children’s Hospital made renovations to the inpatient unit and partial hospitalization program in order for the hospital to better care for children and adolescents between the ages of 6 and 18 with complex pediatric mental health conditions.

The joint Hasbro-Bradley venture cares for patients with both medical and psychiatric illness.

“To provide optimal treatment for children with psychiatric and medical illness, the inpatient unit was designed with input from both pediatric and psychiatric experts,” said Dr. Phyllis Dennery, pediatrician-in-chief of Hasbro Children’s Hospital. “This integrated care model is critically important to children who would not otherwise be able to heal.”
