Scalabrini Villa

Rhode Island · USA · Hospital

This nursing home at North Kingstown, Rhode Island is made up of two buildings. The newer one went up in 1995. The older one, of uncertain date, was originally a children's facility run by Rhode Island Hospital.

The children who died there are who is reported.

A children's hospital of that era was a place where families left a child and went home, because visiting was restricted and infection control meant keeping parents out. Children with tuberculosis, polio and rheumatic fever spent months or years in such places.

A building that held sick children and now holds the very old is a whole human span in one address, and both groups arrived because there was nowhere else.

The home is private and residents should not be disturbed.
