Centre hospitalier spécialisé Albert-Bousquet

The Centre Hospitalier Spécialisé Albert-Bousquet is a psychiatric hospital located on Nouville Peninsula with three main treatment areas focusing on geriatric care, child psychiatry, and general psychiatric services. The facility maintains additional locations in Poindimié and Koumac to serve patients across the region.

The facility started in 1868 as Marais Hospital, providing medical care for sentenced convicts and deportees on Nou Island. It later transformed into a specialized center for mental health treatment.

The facility serves as a key provider of mental health care across New Caledonia, addressing the needs of diverse communities throughout the territory. Its specialized units reflect how locals access psychiatric treatment tailored to different age groups and conditions.

Access is best during daytime hours when services are fully operational and staff can provide guidance. Public transport serves the location and parking is available on-site.

The site includes rehabilitation programs for formerly incarcerated individuals and a treatment unit focused on alcohol dependency. These combined services show how the facility addresses both medical and social reintegration needs.
