With our rapid response to COVID-19, we were one of the first Louisiana Long-term Care Facilities to successfully administer the two-dose Moderna vaccine to residents and staff. Combined with Ochsner’s weekly testing on our campus, we continue to make the safety of our residents and staff a top priority. More than anyone thought possible during 2020, together, with your generous support, Poydras Home persevered and overcame. Your ongoing support and belief in our mission will ensure our legacy endures for generations to come.

Join us in this year’s Appeal as Poydras Home enthusiastically embraces tomorrow. 

In 2021, Poydras Home is Leading Forward.

Poydras Home is proud to announce we will be elevating our tradition of care to an even higher level. Soon, our campus will feature two new buildings with three homes each designed as an intimate home experience offering greater personalized care while expanding the individual lifestyle choices our residents currently enjoy.

“Now more than ever, the future of senior living is evolving. This close-knit, smaller community known as the Green House Project model resulted in fewer COVID-19 cases in Green Houses across the nation. Poydras Home Reimagined encompasses this new, proven living experience that will expand our campus and transform our exemplary vision of elevated care.” — Erin Kolb, CEO
