Healing Arts

At St. Tammany Health System, the Healing Arts Initiative is a program of the St. Tammany Hospital Foundation to promote art as a core component of healthcare and the healing process in the hospital and its outpatient facilities. 

 

Arts in healthcare is more than just the aesthetically beautiful. Studies show that a healing environment can translate to better outcomes, shorter length of stays and the overall well-being of a patient, making it a crucial component of patient care. It is a diverse and multidisciplinary field dedicated to transforming the healthcare experience by connecting people with the power of arts at key moments in their lives. It integrates literary, performing, musical and visual arts and design for therapeutic, educational and expressive purposes. 

We in the Foundation are proud to be stewards of this healthcare initiative. And we are proud to have donors who are passionate about making the inclusion of arts in healthcare the standard at St. Tammany Health System. 

The foundation encourages Northshore artists and other members of the community to join its Healing Arts committee and to be on the lookout for artist calls for our Rotating Gallery Series. For more information contact Nicole Suhre at 985-898-4171 or nsuhre@stph.org.
