Friends Hospital is a private psychiatric hospital serving the Greater Philadelphia region in the United States, with a history spanning more than two centuries. Its 100-acre campus sits in a rural-appearing setting within an urban area, offering a quiet environment for care. Founded in 1813 by Quakers, the institution arose from a philosophy that prioritized kindness, dignity, and respect as the basis for strengthening mental wellness rather than focusing solely on curing illness. Today, it combines behavioral health evidence-based practices with modern wellness and recovery concepts to help patients understand and manage their conditions in a compassionate setting. As part of the Hospitals and Health Care industry, the hospital serves inpatient psychiatric needs for residents of Pennsylvania, particularly around the Philadelphia region, and is characterized as a mid-sized organization. The Joint Commission has named the facility a Top Performer on Key Quality Measures for four consecutive years.
