A Model for Excellence in Health Care Delivery

Our Summer Art for Wellness Series continues in August with a Doodle and Draw Workshop presented by Wood River Health's Artist in Residence, Kara Marziali. This workshop is geared to families to inspire imagination by creating works of art out of freeform doodles and shapes. Research has found that doodling, drawing, and writing can benefit everyone, young and old, specifically in the areas of attention, memory, and learning. Open to everyone, ages 3 and up. Children must be accompanied by an adult.

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.
