I did my internship, residency and Chief residency there for Tulane before leaving to do my GI Fellowship at another university. I am now finishing my 35th year in private practice. The years at Charity made me a doctor. Seeing thede pictures are the first since I left in 1985. I have walked through the entire facility including the basketball courts on the top floor, the sleeping quarters judy below. The pictures of the OR's brought a flood of memories including giving lectures as the Chief Resident. Happiest moments in medicine as it was pure and learning and bereft of the paper work and beauracracy of today. Tears are streaming from my eyes as I see this. Thankyou. James J. O'Mailia, MD.
Wow great to hear from you doctor. The history and memories are amazing!
That is so amazing to read someone has actually worked there and from watching the video has brought back a flood of memories.
Brought a flood? Poor choice of words
Lol
@@tims_always_fishing7117 🤣 damn just let the man have his FLOOD of memories man
I really wish LSU has just kept the history and tradition of this hospital going. It was so amazing having something so historical and meaningful be an active part of our country. We don't have many multi century institutions that have just gone nonstop. Too bad LSU wanted a new building..
Agreed
Thanks for the video. How amazing to see inside the hospital. I left there in the spring of 1993 after I completed my training as a Nurse Anesthetist. So many memories of the place. We attended grand rounds lectures in the amphitheaters on the top floor. The place would be packed shoulder to shoulder listening to presenters. In the evening I could see the city turn to night from the windows in the operating rooms. At that time there were window units for air conditioning in some of the OR's. Trauma cases were done in the larger rooms you showed. I spent hours hanging blood on patients hemorrhaging from stabbing, gun shot wounds and trauma of all sort.
Part of the movie JFK was filmed in the smaller basement amphitheater while I was there. And it is true that the cafeteria was across the hall from the morgue. It was food from the cafeteria that I was glad to have when you are a hungry student. I was given meal tickets that looked like tear off ticket for a carnival ride.
Thanks so much for posting this amazing video.
wow thanks love to hear more such an amazing place filled with lots of history!
Was born here so I was obviously too young to remember what it looked like, but this is interesting to watch the end of life for the building that started mine
That is pretty crazy huh wow
I was born here in 1979
Wild place
Me too, born in 1985. The whole city was born here just about. I remember going here a few times when I was sick as a child. It does hold a special place in my heart.
That's pretty wild to think about it like that
I did my neurology rotation at charity hospital as well as my psychiatry rotation there in 1999-2000. I graduated from the Tulane MD/MPH program in 2001. I remember as a medical student, walking around Charity Hospital. It was often times busy and stressful, but truly an honor to work there helping patients and learning. I love ❤the city of New Orleans and have fond memories of my time as a medical student there. I’m in my 18th year of private practice in Dallas, Texas.
That's awesome
I attended New Orleans job corps and we did our clinical rotations there! Those food trucks outside were so good! 😊
Nice good times 👍
So heartbreaking to see this hospital die. Literally.
As one dies another opens
@@Urbex_OfflimitsI think they did big dirty on charity they wanted it closed so they could get the money for the new one and cash in on the wonderful charity they didn’t care about the under privileged get medical care as Brit the things I read about charity and it’s staff were truly amazing god bless them all ❤️🙏thankyou for showing me around she just looks so sad now it’s heartbreaking 💔 rip to all the people and animals that perished in Katrina I hope the people that survived have managed to rebuild there lives
I trained as a surgical technician there. Great experience and memories. Very long and hard days and nights training and learning with so many amazing people. It was wild!!
Heard a lot of great things from this place and the people too bad it was sabotaged by the city
@@Urbex_Offlimits it was also underfunded. So many things were broken and had to be rigged back together in some instances. It really needed an overhaul due to the age of infrastructure.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH...THEY SAVED MY LIFEI IN 1984......
Wow you lucky man!🙏
Wow what a cool place. All the shots at the end too 🔥🔥🔥
Thank you!
One of the only places I havent been able to get into in NOLA great video keep up the good work.
Took me a minute to figure this place out but let's just say timing is everything 🤘🤙
Amazing I wish they would make another hospital it’s so unfortunate that they are just letting it decay we need another hospital especially in New Orleans!
They are trying
Why was it abandoned?
Good question not so easy to answer watch "big charity" on yt for free
That music tho in the background make charity look like the biggest haunted house in New Orleans 😮
It is the biggest haunted house in New Orleans!
Such a mammoth of a hospital going to waste. RIP Charity hospital!
It's actually slowly being renovated not many know as not much changes on the outside nor on the inside but they say there fixing it???
The different viewing areas for students were my favorite! They’re will never be a hospital as large and as accommodating as this one was, given that it was built so long ago and added to. So so sad, greed wins again!
Sadly there probably won't. It's truly a shame
Omg I’ve been waiting for a video like this i was expecting for it to be a little more grimy but I guess I’m still looking for more lol 😂
The place has been cleaned up that's as much grime as you'll find there these days
There's the Lindy Boggs Medical Center in New Orleans, which is REALLY grimy
The sub basement is still flooded there too
Pretty sure it's gone or nothing left by now
The wet socks. 🥲
Ditched them
Always been curious what this place looked like on the inside. Thanks
Me too I had seen pictures but had to see if for myself! 🤙
To be honest, the inside appearance conveys a state of neglected when it was operational. It reminds me of an early 1900s hospital.
Very spooky but very cool
6:27 anesthesia and oxygen monitor!! I’m not only a OR nurse, but a nurse anesthetist and I almost did my residency at Charity, but when I found out I was accepted into UPenn in Philly’s residency I chose to go there since I was born and raised an hour outside of Philly. It’s crazy to see this hospital so deteriorated!
It's really crazy to see such an important building go on waste. If you haven't seen it yet go watch big charity It's free on YT
Great Video guys! Nice Job
Thank you!
Thanks bro! Kenny
"Hard Rock Cafe' decator st.. French quarter, cook 1996' -98' pre- Katrina! Moved back to Michigan 1999' Great people in Nawlens! Yah heaaarrrd me!
Much love to u guys! ❤ kenny new to yer channel! ✌peace & love ❤
Awesome welcome Kenny!
Nice video, such a dope place 🔥🔥
Heck yeah thank you!!🤙🤙🤙
Charity hospital was part of the TLC show trauma life in the er back in the early 2000s all of the areas you visited were on the Show every Episode would feature a different hospital in the us and this was my favorite
Ah very cool ill have to check it out!
What a great video it's the most detailed I have seen. Shame it's not being used.
Just sitting thete
Apple TV is running a short series on this hospital during Katrina. As a Texan with LA a family, I watched the entire all live and wasn’t sure I wanted to see. Wasn’t bad overall.
Ill check it out thanks
The series is on memorial hospital, not charity
I found this video completely by accident, and I’ve never seen a place like this before, but this building... I saw it in a dream.. 1:50
Looks like batman
that intro tho dam cant believe there was water in there!
Haha right. Crazy huh
"where the unusual occur and miracles happen" says a lot👀
That's their motto
🔥
🤙
crazy place , nice video
Thanks totally 🤘
after you heard that noise and you walked in that operation room and you was zooming in at the view threw the window you can clearly see a orb flying past the camera
woah your right you know we see these all the time at different places and quite offten
This Should Be Part Of The Backrooms
What's that?
I live about 30 minutes from here and every time I pass it on the interstate I wonder how I could get in one day
I wondered the same thing and the day came
It's nearly impossible to get in and out without getting caught now
They have alarms at the front by the road and cop cars with no one in it with cameras
Tattle tale motion sensors
Facts
How did y’all get in, I thought it was fenced off and there are signs on the fence that say it’s protected by security
It's not easy
damnnn. how’d you even get in there?! thats dope
Took a wile to figure this one out. Can't say how don't want to blow it
So sad💔
Such a beacon of hope for all!! The devoted Hero's that worked through that horrible time, they were all warriors. The patient's were also warriors too!! God Bless ❤️
🙏🙏🙏
ALS0 MY FIRST SON WAS BORN THERE IN 1976 ON MARDI GRAS DAY
Awe congratulations 👏 that's awesome!
8:09 you got ghosts flying across the screen lol
Oh yeah totally wild
I heard that sound, time mark around 4 minutes. Had to be a ghost lol seriously think about all the energy there.
Yeah shortly after @4:00 sounds like a child or something not sure
At 0:55 too, the sound has the same cadence, but different tone. 😬😰
@@Urbex_Offlimits it def. sounded like a baby to me. I worked at Touro LCMC health and I was wondering if babies were ever born at this hospital then heard a kid ghost, apparently!
Did sound like a baby huh. It was a big place I'm sure there were children born there
@@namikokaori of course there were children born there it was a hospital open for 200 years
0:42 - is that the same room they filmed the chase sequence for "The Client" between Kim Koates (Gronke) and Brad Renfro (Mark Sway?)
"Paging Mr. Sway"?
Not sure
@@Urbex_Offlimits Where you were standing looks EXACTLY shot for shot where the cameraman filmed the scene just before Mark Sway locks Gronke in a freezer in the morgue.
Rewatch the film - you'll see what I mean. It would make perfect sense to film there since New Orleans was one of their filming locations.
Cool I think it was
I’m surprised no bums or thieves have looted all that hardware that was left behind by now that
There's not much left behind It actually was looted in the past after the hurricane.
All the medical stuff was cleared out in 2017 because lsu was planning to lease it for development
1:52 we got backrooms IRL before gta 6
Forsure
Place was scarier when it was open.
Bet
This hospital is representative of the entire medical industry in New Orleans. From the beginning of medicine in North America, New Orleans was a leading or at leastat he head of the table. Then, the 1-2 punch of Katrina and Obama care completely ended it all.
Sad what happened after the storm
How long ago was this filmed?
Sometime during 2021
I need a video of the old N.O.A.H. New Orleans Adolescent Hospital.
When I was a teen I was being moved from home to home. NOAH was not a place I should have been. It was for crazy people. Padded rooms with beds that the strap you down in. Back in the day they treated troubled teens like psychopaths. Thankfully it was abandoned.
Oh yeah I've had my eye on that place it's sooo old. But i haven't checked it out yet next time im in nola! I had a similar childhood so I feel ya man!🤘
Why did you step in the water with your socks? 😭
Didn't wanna get my shoes wet 😆
How the hell did y’all get in tried multiple times never could find a way
Took me a few times to figure it out aswell, where there's a will there's a way!
Did you feel like you were being watched at all? For an abandoned hospital where over 200years people have died at, you didn’t seem too spooked
I didn't notice anything at this location. I've had some spooky things happen in the past but not lately. Check out my Lincoln Heights Jail video!!
😵 were you really just in there with no shoes on?
Yeah didn't want to soak my shoes for that lots of walking around here 😋
How u get in to filming all this I wan go in to
Just a hobby
in the morgue are those different levels of seats for people to watch a trained doctor work on a body or what? if I'm not mistaken that table looks like it's meant to catch all the blood in a body. why did you walk In that barefoot as well
Yes it is, didn't wanna get my shoes wet
That’s an operating theater for med students
this place is very hard to get into
Facts
WHY IN THE SOCKS MAN
WHY 😭😭😭😭😭😭
Didn't want to ruin my shoes yet 😆
WHY AFTER 16 YRS IS THERE STILL WATER> I THOUGHT IT REOPENED IN 2006.
Never reopened
Does anyone know the near future plans for the hospital?
There's talk about renovation, turning it into a apartment with a bar and club or something like that
@@Urbex_Offlimits Interesting. You know how far off they are from moving on those plans?
They've been doing work over there very very very slowly for the last 10 years now not much ever changes. As far as the renovation I don't know probably hasn't started yet
@@Urbex_Offlimits Sent ya a DM over insta, check it out at your soonest convenience!
Will do!
Am not meaning to be that guy but did you hear that? 4:01
Yes, I actually did not hear this in person, but while editing, I heard it. Kind spooky!
Bro did your feet fall off from raw dawging it through that doodoo water?
No the socks saved me lol
Wonder how many married employees had affairs in there?
Why?
nah bro wearing socks in that water is a war crime
😆😆😆
Nah worse than a war crime, it’s a crime against humanity
Why does it sound like there's a shop fan on?
Idk doc
Looks like backrooms footage
It's better than that
13:05 what were all these rooms
Those were the highlights of what's left that was surgical room mri surgical amphitheaters and much more check out the photos on ig at urbex_offlimits
ITS IMPRESIVE AND ALL BUT EWWW THAT DIRTY WATER AND YOURE WALKING IN IT AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Loved every moment of that!
I was so grossed out omg 😱
🤘🤘
soooooooooooooooooo many windows!!!!!!! it doesnt look like a hospital
It was a teaching hospital there were classes and such
No you weren’t in the water that is still there?
Feet first
That’s one way to do it.
@@Urbex_Offlimits how carved out is the majority of the building? The infrastructural planning on this building is burdened by its Historical Structure status. However. The council has talked about building internal mini city of sorts also geared with a school and dormitory facilities if I’m not mistaken. Then their conversations ventured to city government use but I think that was shot down. Either way. The building is a grave site when it could stand as a monument or a memorial. This building’s potential is nigh limitless for the city of New Orleans and they just twiddle their thumbs wasting funding doing dumb stuff like not raise first responder pay or incorporate more education into the funding. Or doing something about the failing water and sewerage systems city wide. Not to mention the lead that leeches into the water because of the brackish nature of the water around here. Or the best in my opinion… the fact that our levee systems are inadequate to the point they wouldn’t protect us against another identical Katrina right now. In 15 years the subsidizing of land into the ground has eaten our levee heights or the army corp of engineers cut billion dollar corners. 15 billion dollars for substandard protection. We got lucky with IDA. Sorry. It’s irritating to say the least.
Socks. What? Bruh
RIP Socks!
what a yawner
Bed time
Not that good. Too interested in the skyline - not the hospital. No history mentioned. Focused on a few shots. Look elsewhere. Though I haven’t seen an educated video of this site.
Take it or leave it skyline was unbeatable I'd go back just for the view!
@@Urbex_Offlimits Sure, but if your purpose is to explore an abandoned building, then that should be the focus of research and exploration, whatever the story of that place might be. Seeing it in it’s entirety. It’s a story, a narrative. What’s unusual about it? What’s similar to others like it? Tell the story.
@@naomiweaver1855 look it up, it was in use when Katrina hit. Lots of stories about it, some amazing and others are tragic.
@@justme590 I have - there’s a great book about the hospitals in New Orleans during Katrina. It’s by Sheri Fink, “Five Days at Memorial.” The hospitals were being forced to make life and death decisions as conditions worsened and worsened. It’s kind of a page turner.
Did you go in all by yourself?
Yes and no both I've been solo and with someone
@@Urbex_Offlimits nice. safe travels and godspeed
Thanks you got it!
Y was it never put back in fit for purpose!? I work construction 🏗 as a Rigger & apart from water damage lower cores/levels structure wise the building is fixable but obviously not profitable. That’s ur government
Sounds about right
The state didn’t want a fully state run/funded hospital. They wanted to privatize to bring in more insured/paying patients. LSU medical school wanted a new state of the art building.
@@angieh1552 yes that makes sense, has to only b the reason because structurally it looked sound! Me British myself but researched the hospital & found out again structurally the site was fine. Awful really
@@angieh1552 a bit of cladding would of modernised the site but being a charity hospital The US government wasn’t interested
Profits over people
