Westerly Hospital is a non-profit hospital in Westerly, Rhode Island.

According to the 2017 PBS documentary "Our Town - Westerly",^[1] a longtime resident of Westerly named Louise Hoxie died in 1917 and left $10,000 "to establish a foundation fund" for a hospital in Westerly. The intent of this money was to use it as seed money for investments to accrue capital for a hospital, with the fund eventually growing to a reported $200,000.

Westerly Hospital was founded in 1925 to continually improve the health and well-being of the people in the region.

The hospital was acquired by Lawrence and Memorial Hospital in 2013.^[2] In 2015 the hospital became part of the Yale New Haven Health System.^[3]

One of Florence Nightingale's nursing caps was on display in the lobby of the hospital, starting in 1965.^[4] As of 2019, the cap is no longer on display.^[5]

The hospital employs 742 employees and 307 medical staff.

During its 2020 fiscal year, it reported 12,609 inpatient discharges and 284,718 outpatient visits. ^[6]

The Westerly Hospital provides comprehensive diagnostic and therapeutic services to inpatients and outpatients, with particular expertise in laboratory services, diagnostic imaging, surgery, emergency care, cardiac care, physical therapy & rehabilitation.
