Project Description

The project involves the construction of a 41,260 sq. ft., state-of-the-art clinic facility in Morehouse Parish that will consolidate three stand-alone sites (a pediatric clinic, a family practice clinic and an administrative site) in New Bastrop, retaining 37 FTEs, and allowing for (1) the expansion of medical, dental and behavioral health services; (2) on-site access to pharmacy, radiology and laboratory services; and (3) community space that can be converted to a 25-bed shelter to house people who need low-level medical attention during an emergency, which is an all-to-frequent occurrence in this area of Louisiana.
