St. Charles Parish Hospital growth and services
The hospital signed a joint surgeon (Dr. Bryant King) and a sports medicine doctor (Dr. Charles Long), plus a rheumatologist and a new Destrehan primary care doctor — more specialty and primary care options close to home.
911 ESInet communications upgrade
The 911 district is planning a $2 million upgrade to a cloud-based AT&T emergency network that would let residents send video and photos to dispatchers and push data to patrol cars. It'll be paid from the district's healthy fund balance, not new fees. Text-to-911 is also now live.
