Health Care Centers in Schools

Health Care Centers in Schools is a partner of Our Lady of the Lake Children’s Health. We serve as an entry point of care for physical, mental and behavioral health. We provide high quality collaborative care to students in schools across Greater Baton Rouge regardless of socioeconomic background. Our team of medical and behavioral health providers partner with families, educators, schools, and community organizations to improve healthcare outcomes. Our vision is that every child will have the opportunity to learn, grow and be successful in a healthy and caring environment. Our service lines include School Based Health Centers, School Nursing and Community Outreach.

Included in the Franciscan Missionaries of Our Lady Health System, we share the following mission:

Inspired by the vision of St. Francis of Assisi and the tradition of the Roman Catholic Church, we extend the healing ministry of Jesus Christ to God’s people, especially those most in need. We call forth all who serve in this healthcare ministry to share their gifts and talents to create a Spirit of Healing — with reverence and love for all of life, with joyfulness of spirit, and with humility and justice for all those entrusted to our care. We are, with God’s help, a healing and spiritual presence for each other and for the communities we are privileged to serve.
