A local hospital built around hope, dignity and recovery.
Genesis Behavioral Hospital provides adults in South Louisiana with psychiatric care that is structured, compassionate and close to home.
Two hospitals. Four clinics. One caring team.
Genesis operates two inpatient psychiatric facilities in Louisiana — an 18-bed privately owned hospital in Breaux Bridge and a 10-bed unit inside Acadia St. Landry Hospital in Church Point — along with Partial Hospitalization and Intensive Outpatient programs in Lafayette, Crowley, New Iberia and Church Point.
We serve adults living with mental illness, a dual diagnosis, or both. Each patient receives an individualized care plan developed together with their support system, and a discharge plan focused on recovery and preventing relapse.

High-quality care that improves quality of life.
Our mission is to deliver the highest quality, most cost-effective mental healthcare — meeting or exceeding nationally recognized professional standards, with caring attitudes, in a safe and sanitary environment that inspires patient confidence.
Patient-centered
Care plans are built around each person's needs, goals and support system — never one-size-fits-all.
Safe & homelike
A stable, structured setting designed to feel calm and respectful, so patients can focus on healing.
Integrated continuum
Connected inpatient, partial hospitalization and intensive outpatient services with seamless transitions.
Always improving
Leadership sets annual goals from community needs assessments and continuously evaluates our services.
Invested in our people
Ongoing staff development, retention and adequate staffing so every patient gets the attention they need.
Teamwork across disciplines
Interdepartmental committees and multidisciplinary teams coordinate every aspect of care.

Respect for every person who walks through our doors.
Genesis welcomes patients regardless of race, color, national origin, disability or age. Language assistance is available, and our non-discrimination notice is published in English, Spanish and French.
