Advancing Acadiana

Advancing Acadiana is our bold vision to meet the growing needs of the region, allowing us to treat our patients in the right place, with the right resources, at the right time, designed to improve quality and experience.

In the next three years we will invest nearly $100 million across all our campuses, through construction projects, technological advancements and process enhancements.

Effective August 15, 2024

We will create a construction zone on the front of the building and consolidate to one entrance into our Women's and Children's hospital. Patients seeking the emergency room will enter in the front entrance. Ambulance traffic remains unchanged.


Effective November 11

Temporary walls will be installed in the ED lobby, as we are having to redirect incoming traumas while construction is underway. We will also be installing exterior barrier walls around our workspace, which will be coned and flagged off to avoid vehicle or patient interference on the drive deck. Scaffolding will be placed and secured around the exterior stairwell.

Expecting Something Big for Acadiana's Families

Our Advancing Acadiana plan at Our Lady of Lourdes Women’s & Children’s Hospital is a multi-phased renovation and expansion strategy that includes a Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) with family suites, modernizing the labor & delivery experience, construction of a new Mother Baby unit, further developing our women’s medical/surgical unit, a new chapel, and other notable interior and exterior improvements.
Since 2019, we have opened the Ronald McDonald Family Room, invested in surgical instrumentation, including a new da Vinci Xi robotic surgical system, and expanded access for Acadiana’s kids by adding numerous pediatric providers to our growing physician enterprise. We continue to take steps toward an environment that matches the exceptional care provided by our team.
