Courtyard of Natchitoches
The Courtyard of Natchitoches is conveniently located in the heart of Natchitoches on Keyser Avenue. The 3.5 acre campus offers many amenities for residents and their families, and it is designed to meet the needs of those requiring skilled nursing care whether temporary or permanent.
Licensed by the State of Louisiana and Medicare and Medicaid certified, the facility was built in 2009 at a cost of $8.5 million. The interior of The Courtyard consists of 112 patient rooms, three dining areas, whirlpool baths, television/game room, reading areas, and many common areas for gathering with friends and family. There is also an onsite beauty shop. The exterior of The Courtyard has an abundance of green space creating a park-like setting for residents and families to enjoy. The gated courtyard has a walking track and beautiful gardens.
Rooms
We offer private, as well as, semi-private rooms. With an abundance of natural light and beautiful amenities, each room is specially engineered for climate control with state-of the art heating and air-conditioning systems.
Residents can move right in using existing furnishings or they are welcome to bring their favorite chair(s), bedroom furniture, and decorations if they choose. Each room takes on its own flair as residents make themselves at home.
Dining
Residents enjoy healthy, nutritious meals supplied by the talented staff at NRMC Nutritional Services Department, and meals are served in three spacious dining areas. NRMC Housekeeping Associates ensure high standards of cleanliness – doing all that they can to ensure a healthy environment for our residents and their guests.
Families & Friends
We welcome families and friends at the Courtyard, and often have special programs and events for them to enjoy with their resident. The Courtyard team understands the unique needs of families and offers educational support for them.
About Our Team
Backed by the full services of Natchitoches Regional Medical Center, our team includes highly trained, experienced, and professional individuals. Our nursing team consists of registered nurses, licensed practical nurses, and certified nursing assistants. Physical therapists, occupational therapists, and speech therapists provide key rehabilitation services on site.
We also have four medical directors, an administrative director, and other key leaders who work daily to ensure all residents’ physical, mental, and emotional needs are met. Clergy from area religious organizations visit often and provide worship services.
We empower Associates to take extra steps for resident safety, comfort and health. They act as resident advocates to ensure the Courtyard upholds the highest standards of care.
