When she’s off the clock, you’ll find her enjoying life doing what she loves most. Her favorite local meals? 🍤 Seafood, shrimp, and fish! And when it’s time to relax, she enjoys Sanford and Son, Good Times, and Lifetime movies.

Another milestone from 1971: PCGH played a vital role during the controversial Celebration of Life rock festival. Our dedicated team treated dozens of patients for heatstroke, overdoses, and other festival-related injuries — serving the parish when it needed us most.

Throwback to 1971 🚧

That year brought big changes to our community — including the opening of the brand-new Hospital Road, connecting Morganza Highway and False River Drive.
A picture from 1971 of the new highway, Hospital Road, which was completed for $210,000. Running alongside PCGH, this new artery links False River Drive and Morganza Highway.
