All psychiatric referrals require a primary psychiatric diagnosis and must meet criteria for admission per the ESH
Admission, Discharge, and Transfer Policy. The appropriate campus and unit for admission will be determined by the ESH Admission Team. Internal unit transfers between Cranston and Burrillville (Zambarano Campus) are at the discretion of the ESH clinical treatment team at any time following admission.
