Emergency Preparedness
LCMC Health has plans in place to ensure the safety of our patients and staff
When a tropical storm or hurricane threatens New Orleans, LCMC Health will activate its emergency plan to provide patients, their family members, and staff with up-to-date information regarding our preparations, announcements about closing and reopening the facilities, and other relevant instructions. In addition, www.lcmchealth.org will be updated with vital information.
