After enjoying lunch at Griffins Antiques & Main St. Market for a true taste of rural Louisiana, they toured our facility and saw firsthand the work being done every day at BGH to care for the people of our region.

Thank you to 𝗟𝗗𝗛 and 𝗖𝗠𝗦 for taking the time to visit, listen, and learn more about rural healthcare in our community. 𝙒𝙚 𝙖𝙥𝙥𝙧𝙚𝙘𝙞𝙖𝙩𝙚 𝙮𝙤𝙪𝙧 𝙞𝙣𝙩𝙚𝙧𝙚𝙨𝙩 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙮𝙤𝙪𝙧 𝙨𝙪𝙥𝙥𝙤𝙧𝙩!

This week marked one year since we lost our dear friend and coworker, Stacy Reed Laborde, who faithfully served Bunkie General Hospital for 30 years as our Pharmacy Director. On Monday, we gathered together to honor her memory during a special memorial service and to dedicate a beautiful new cross in her name in our chapel.

This cross holds deep meaning for our hospital family. It was hand-crafted from the wood of the large oak tree that once stood near our Emergency Department, a tree that provided shade, comfort, and familiarity to so many over the years. Though the tree had to be removed to make way for the addition of our new ED, its wood has now been transformed into something lasting and meaningful, a symbol of faith, remembrance, and hope.

We would like to extend our sincere thanks to Ducman Wood Products for the time, care, and craftsmanship poured into creating this special cross, and to Laurie Ducote, HIM Manager, for the heartfelt idea that made this tribute possible.

Stacy’s memory continues to live in the hearts of those who knew and loved her. We are grateful for the opportunity to honor her life in such a meaningful way. ❤️

Wound care is essential to the health and well-being of patients with wounds, and taking steps toward good nutrition is essential to the wound healing process. Without increased amounts of calories, protein and vitamins, wound healing can be delayed, worsen or even halt!
