A facility located at 750 Keyser Avenue, formerly known as Natchitoches Nursing & Rehabilitation Center, is now operating under the name Onyx Care of Natchitoches.
The name change was brought to the attention of the Natchitoches Parish Journal through comments on social media, which indicated the transition occurred in November 2025. A new sign reflecting the updated name has been installed at the location.
The following response from Onyx Care was received after the NPJ publication deadline:
As of November 1, 2025, the facility underwent a change of ownership from Natchitoches Nursing and Rehab under Tara Cares management to Onyx Care of Natchitoches, under Onyx Healthcare. We are confident that this change will bring much positive change to the residents, as well as the families and staff.
Our team puts a strong emphasis on clinical excellence, quality care and professionalism, while still maintaining a warm environment. Onyx Healthcare is devoting significant resources to ensure the facility’s success.
We emphasize staff satisfaction, as we understand that quality and empathetic patient care starts with our team. Our staff and dedicated nurses are equipped with cutting edge technology and communication resources which enable us to provide superb and meticulous care. We work diligently to develop customized patient care plans, tailored to individual needs and abilities allowing each of our residents the opportunity to recuperate, and feel at home throughout the duration of their stay.
There are a few exciting developments we are currently working on:
1) Developing and implementing new clinical programming to expand our service options to the community
2) Our commitment to investing in capital improvements to ensure a positive environment for our residents and staff.
