ROCHESTER, NY, - Rochester Regional Health (RRH) has been recognized as one of only 60 hospitals and health systems nationwide to be recognized for its great psychiatry and behavioral health programs by Becker’s Healthcare, a leading source of healthcare industry news.
This national recognition highlights RRH’s unwavering commitment to advancing mental and behavioral health care across the communities it serves. The systems on the list were selected based on editorial research and nominations, and inclusion cannot be purchased.
“True community health means addressing both physical and mental wellness, and this honor reflects our continued dedication to providing comprehensive, accessible, and inclusive care,” said Mary Marrocco, MD, Executive Medical Director of Behavioral Health.
“Being recognized by Becker’s is a testament to the extraordinary work our teams do every day to care for individuals with mental and behavioral health needs,” said Eve Hosford, Vice President and Chief Administrative Officer of Behavioral Health at RRH.

- More than 370,000 outpatient visits annually
