Archer Institute of Memorial

Lake Charles Memorial Health System is leading the way in our community with the most modern, advanced 42-bed behavioral health hospital in Southwest Louisiana - Archer Institute. The inpatient facility opened amid the growing demand for more comprehensive mental health and substance abuse treatment in our community.

The 31,567 sq. ft hospital includes:

• 14 Bed Child & Adolescent Unit
• 28 Bed Adult Unit
• Geriatric behavioral health services are housed at our Oak Park main campus.

Future expansion plans include Phase 2 and Phase 3 which will include the addition of two 28-bed units, along with the construction of a medical office building that will house psychiatric outpatient programs. When all phases are completed, a total of 65,000 sq. ft and 102 beds will be available to treat the behavioral health needs of Southwest Louisiana.
