St. Elizabeth Hospital is part of the Franciscan Missionaries of Our Lady Health System. The health system was organized in 1984 to unite three existing hospitals in Louisiana which were already part of the Franciscan Missionaries of Our Lady's mission of extending the healthcare of Jesus Christ to those most in need. Headquartered in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, the health system serves patients across the State of Louisiana through a network of hospitals, clinics, physicians, elderly housing and integrated information systems and currently employs over 13,000 individuals.
