For more than 25 years, Women & Children's Hospital has been providing quality healthcare services to the residents of southwest Louisiana and southeast Texas.
Conveniently located off Interstate 210 and Nelson Road in Lake Charles, Women & Children's Hospital is an 88-bed full-service acute care hospital, featuring a 9-bed Emergency Department, 25-bed Newborn Nursery, 20-bed Neonatal ICU and a 4-bed Adult Intensive Care Unit.
Since the hospital opened in 1984, services have expanded to offer healthcare for the entire family including: inpatient, outpatient, medical and surgical services for adults and children; a 24-hour emergency department; intensive care services; labor and delivery services; diagnostic imaging; laboratory services and physical, occupational and speech therapies, to name a few.
Known as the area's preferred leader for women's services, Women & Children's offers an experienced team of physicians and nurses who are truly committed to patient care. By offering private labor and delivery suites, a fully-staffed newborn nursery, birthing classes and a Level 3 Neonatal Intensive Care Unit for the most delicate of patients, it's no wonder why families continue to choose Women & Children's as the birthplace for their children.
