In addition, this department also provides nursing care for veterans at five homes, located across the state, in: Bossier City, Jennings, Jackson, Reserve, and Monroe, La. And, operates four veterans cemeteries located across the state, offering a variety of burial options for Veterans, spouses and dependent children.
