Meet Jen B.

Jen and the members of her family have called Wood River Health their Home for Health for generations.

We are committed to providing a safe, respectful, and healing environment for all. We kindly ask that all patients and guests:

- Speak respectfully to staff, providers and others

- Treat everyone with kindness and patience

- Refrain from using threatening, aggressive or disruptive behavior

- Respect the privacy and comfort of those around you

Unacceptable behavior will not be tolerated and may result in removal from the premises or dismissal from care. Together, we can create a space where everyone feels safe and supported. Thank you for being part of our community.

The Wood River Health Team

Call us first if you are sick or have a dental problem. We have same day medical visits 6 days/week!

Wood River Health’s providers are on-call 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, even on holidays. Avoid long lines at the ER and high co-pays at Urgent Care Centers. Contact us anytime at 401.539.2461. In a true emergency, always call 911 or go the nearest emergency room.

Wood River Health treats patients at our facilities or by telehealth (by phone or video). Due to insurance changes in telephone and video visits, some calls from you with our providers may have a co-pay.  Learn more about our telehealth services. For more information, visit Telehealth Services.

Wood River Health now offers the mobile Phreesia app for quicker, convenient preregistration before appointments. Please be sure we have your most current cell phone number and/or email address on file. After preregistering online with Phreesia, please be sure to stop by the front desk when you arrive so we know you are here for your appointment. Learn more about our new process here.

The Rhode Island Department of Health advises people not to drink the water at our Hope Valley location at this time. Bottled water is available at our front desk for our patients’ use until our final mitigation plan is approved by the Rhode Island Department of Health.

Wood River Health’s Hope Valley well water system does not currently meet the new public drinking water regulations due to an exceedance of acceptable levels of a certain chemical.  This exceedance is the result of a recent change in the requirements established by the Rhode Island Department of Health. About half of all Rhode Island facilities are having this issue because of the new standards. Wood River Health is implementing treatments to reduce the levels of contaminants in our drinking water to ensure they fall below the new standard.

Please see our public notice regarding the water at our Hope Valley location.
