💚 Mental Health Matters — This Month and Every Month 💚

During Mental Health Awareness Month, West Ascension Parish Hospital encourages our community to take time to learn, talk, and care for your mental well-being — and to support those around you.

Mental health is just as important as physical health. By educating ourselves and others, we help reduce stigma and create a stronger, more supportive community. 🤝

✨ Simple Tips for Better Mental Wellness:
• Make time each day to rest and recharge
• Stay connected with family and friends
• Get moving — even a short walk can help
• Practice mindfulness or prayer
• Don’t be afraid to ask for help when you need it

🌟 Coming Soon to WAPH!
We’re proud to expand access to care in our community. Behavioral Health Services will be available beginning September 2026 with Trinease Sanders, MSN, APRN, PMHNP-BC.

Because at West Ascension Parish Hospital, we believe in caring for the whole person — mind, body, and spirit.

🎓✨ Celebrating an Incredible Achievement! ✨🎓

Please join us in congratulating one of our own on earning her second master’s degree—a truly inspiring accomplishment!

Her journey in healthcare began at Nicholls State University, where she earned both an Associate’s Degree in Cardiopulmonary Care Science and a Bachelor’s in Allied Health Professional Practice. From there, she built a strong foundation as a Registered Respiratory Therapist, caring for critically ill patients and managing ventilators in high-acuity settings.

Throughout her career, she has served patients across multiple departments—including ICU, ER, MedSurg, and Labor & Delivery—always bringing compassion, skill, and dedication to those who need it most. While balancing the demands of working in critical care and returning to school after several years, she remained determined to grow. In 2015, she earned her first graduate degree from Belhaven University—a Master’s in Health Care Administration—along with a Graduate Certificate in Human Resources.

Driven by her passion for understanding how life circumstances impact health, she continued her education and has now achieved her second graduate degree—a Master’s in Public Administration.

Today, as our Respiratory Manager at West Ascension Parish Hospital, she brings not only years of hands-on patient care experience but also a deep commitment to improving the health of the rural communities she has proudly served for over 13 years.

👏 We are incredibly proud to have her as part of our team and look forward to all the ways she will continue to make a difference.

Congratulations on this amazing milestone! đź’™

At West Ascension Parish Hospital, we believe that investing in our team means investing in better care for our community.

We’re proud to share that Kevin Causey and Quincy Richard recently attended the Louisiana Hospital Association's Human Resources Professional Symposium, where they had the opportunity to learn, collaborate, and grow alongside other healthcare leaders from across the state.
