St. Margaret’s Family of Care supports seniors in their physical, spiritual, and emotional well-being through integrated healthcare with a heart for service to our community. Since 1889, St. Margaret’s Family of Care has built a trusted legacy for senior health within the New Orleans community. Our network of care has since expanded to three senior living communities, partnerships with hospice, therapy, and pharmacy services, and a Foundation that ensures we continue to meet the needs of our elders for years to come.
Our namesake, Saint Margaret of Scotland, inspired our founders with her dutiful service to vulnerable populations. Her acts of compassion and dedication became a model for how we approach our skilled nursing and therapeutic services. Following in her footsteps, we serve the elderly with a spirit that transcends the standard of senior healthcare. It’s a spirit that permeates our network and operates at every level of our care team.

Caring for the wellbeing of seniors requires a family-oriented approach. For St. Margaret’s Family of Care, this belief goes far beyond a system of integrated healthcare.
