About SMH

Welcome to Slidell Memorial Hospital, Your Hospital for Life.

Now celebrating its 50th anniversary of serving the community, Slidell Memorial Hospital is proud to be named a "Best Place to Work" by New Orleans City Business magazine, which recognizes our commitment to compassionate care, and a patient-centered culture. We are driven by a shared mission: To improve the quality of life in our community.

As a 182-bed acute care community hospital located in the heart of Slidell, La., we provide access to the latest treatments and technology and expert physicians:

  • 51 percent of all cancer procedures in the region are performed by our Cancer Services program. SMH broke ground on a new comprehensive cancer center in August 2009.
  • We're the only hospital on the Northshore to offer cancer patients the temporary high-dose rate radiation treatment, with the newly installed Varian brachytherapy system.
  • The most powerful Image Guided Radiation technology in the world is available in our Radiation Center.
  • Our orthopedic specialists are among only a handful in the region to offer anterior hipreplacement surgery using a new state-of-the-art hanaTM Hip and Knee Arthroplasty Table, one of just 100 in use across the country.
