Lacombe Nursing Centre is a dedicated facility specializing in providing both skilled nursing and rehabilitation services within a caring, comfortable, and clean environment. With a longstanding history of serving the St. Tammany region and Greater New Orleans area since 1968, Lacombe Nursing Centre has built a reputation as a leader in delivering quality medical care in a personal and compassionate setting. The facility, nestled among majestic oak trees in the rural community of Lacombe, Louisiana, strives to combine the highest standards of medical care with a strong focus on customer service and patient well-being.
At the heart of Lacombe Nursing Centre’s mission is a commitment to individualized rehabilitation and skilled nursing, tailored to support both short-term recovery and long-term quality of life. The exclusive Rehabilitation Unit is thoughtfully designed for patients who have been discharged from the hospital but require additional transitional, short-term skilled rehabilitation and nursing care to ensure a safe and effective return home. This specialized area allows for a concentrated focus on recovery goals, making use of a therapy space that mirrors many daily living activities encountered at home and in the community. Here, patients benefit from access to therapy services up to six days per week, maximizing their functional abilities and reducing the overall duration of their stay away from home.
The skilled team at Lacombe Nursing Centre includes highly trained nursing and rehabilitation professionals who deliver physician-prescribed interventions for complex medical conditions. Their approach blends clinical excellence with a genuine interest in each individual, supporting residents and short-term patients alike to achieve the best possible health and life outcomes. Whether the need is for transitional care following surgery, illness, or injury, or for a longer-term supportive stay, the care model is designed to facilitate both regaining independence and ensuring lasting comfort.
Family partnership is a cornerstone of the care philosophy at Lacombe Nursing Centre. Families are encouraged to participate actively, whether through emotional support, involvement in family training and educational sessions, attending family conferences, or assisting with coordinated discharge planning. This collaborative approach helps foster both emotional well-being and successful recoveries.
Lacombe Nursing Centre provides a wide range of clinically proven therapy programs to assist in the recovery from common surgeries, medical procedures, and illnesses. These flexible therapy services are offered within an environment that blends traditional rehabilitation practices with real-life skills training. Permanent residents benefit from long-term skilled nursing care, while those recovering from acute medical events have access to intensive, short-term rehabilitation. Every aspect of the experience is crafted to promote comfort, dignity, and a quicker path home when possible, reflecting the centre’s core belief that the best healthcare outcomes arise when there is genuine care for the individual alongside exceptional service delivery.
Surrounded by the serene beauty of rural Louisiana and underpinned by decades of experience, Lacombe Nursing Centre stands as a supportive community for those seeking recovery, rehabilitation, or ongoing skilled nursing care. Its mission remains unwavering: to deliver exceptional medical and rehabilitative care, always centered on the unique needs and comfort of each resident and patient.
