St Theresa
Specialty Hospital is a Long Term Acute Care hospital, meeting the needs
of the medically complex patients in our community.
Some patients are not "sick enough" to remain in a short term
acute hospital, but require more hospitalization before they can safely
return home. That's where the Long Term Acute Care Hospital comes in.
Dedicated to a holistic, team approach to patient care, we treat patients
with a wide range of problems, including
- Respiratory Failure/Ventilators
- Cardiovascular Diseases/Telemetry
- Complicated Infections/Long-term IV antibiotics
- Uncontrolled Diabetes
- Non-healing wounds
- Surgical complications
- Strokes
The Kenner
campus at 3601 Loyola Drive boasts all private rooms, designed to feel
more like home than a hospital. The Metairie campus is located on the
5th floor of East Jefferson General Hospital, with state of the art
emergency care available 24/7. At either campus, our dedicated medical
team and low nurse-to-patient staffing ratios ensures our patients receive
the quality care and attention they deserve.
We accept Medicare, all commercial insurance (Humana, People's Health
Network, etc) and most private insurance. Call us at 504-780-3033 if
