Ochsner is a proud sponsor of CaringBridge, a charitable nonprofit organization providing free websites that connect families and friends when someone is facing a serious health event, care and recovery. A CaringBridge  website saves time and energy by centralizing communication and easing the burden of updating everyone during a health event.

CaringBridge can be used during all types of serious health events. Each website is unique - authors select their website design and add health updates and photos to share their story. Visitors leave messages of love and support in the guestbook.

CaringBridge connects a patient's entire community, creating a network of support for everyone involved. It empowers love, compassion and healing by building a therapeutic connection that reduces isolation, relieves stress and improves quality of life.

Founded in 1997, CaringBridge's mission is to bring together a global community of care powered by the love of family and friends in an easy, accessible and private way.
