if you notice, Google is already saying that it is permanently closed but we know that they will close Friday and close for good. There is nothing posted on the hospital's website about the closure yet.

So if you are a patient at the hospital you may need to get with them if you need anything like your medical records and such. Avail opened its doors in Lake Charles in December of 2017.

From the looks of it, the hospital only made it just shy of six years in Lake Charles. When we find out more news of why it closed, we will pass it along to you.
