The Future of Care Delivery
This state-of-the-art inpatient facility within West Tower will include features of our Ochsner Optimal Hospital, which are designed to improve safety, quality, and the overall patient experience. The Optimal Hospital program offers advanced, patient-centered care to our community using innovative devices, materials, and processes like:
- Tablets offered to patients to view their health data and daily schedule, learn about their care team and condition, take notes, and request comfort items, as well as access select entertainment portals.
- Wireless vitals monitors to continuously relay patients’ vitals directly to their medical records and to care team members’ phones in emergencies, while providing patients unrestricted mobility and minimal disruptions to collect health information.
- Nightly “quiet hours” and red night lights to minimize environmental sleep disturbances.
- Copper-infused antimicrobial bed sheets, gowns, towels and surfaces to provide supplemental protection against infections.
This expansion represents our relentless commitment to our community through developing new and innovative models of care.

Wonderful experience. The team at Ochsner is willing to work with you to ensure that you are seen at the scheduled time when unexpected obstacles occur. This happened at my last scheduled visit. I've been a patient for 17 years and have been very pleased with the service.

My husband was the patient. We had been to two other hospitals and we're just sent on our way. Oschner took excellent care of my husband. Dr. Mary Yu is so awesome and I love her. His nurse was Jasmine and she was awesome as well. Thank you Oschner I now feel so much better about husband's health.

Greatest medical facility we have ever dealt with. Efficient, professional, friendly, compassionate, and so into top notch patient care. They saved my husband's life with a liver transplant in January of 2019 and just this week by treating his sepsis and kidney dysfunction. We love everyone at Ochsner, from the ER to the Transplant department to the TSU and everyone in between. A special thanks to our transplant team, Dr. Therapondos and Dr Sharma who are all number one in our hearts. We would highly recommend this facility to anyone needing a transplant or for any other serious medical condition. Thank you Ochsner!!

I have visited several Ochsner clinics over the past week and have been extremely pleased. Every person that I have spoken with/or met with has been very kind & professional. I have not had to wait for a long period of time for any appt., and never rushed out when the appt. was completed. All questions & concerned were addressed and I left with a feeling of satisfaction. I would highly recommend the Ochsner facilities.
