Values Statement Compass Health is committed to the professional growth of its employees and the development of positive lasting relationships with healthcare providers, approaching each healthcare challenge with diligence, integrity, skill, and innovation. Compass Beginnings Founded in 1998 by Mark Cullen, Compass Health began providing mental health services through a partnership with other rural Southwest Louisiana healthcare providers. Out of this experience grew a community mental health center and a mental health rehab agency serving residents of Lafayette, Vermilion, Iberia, and Acadia Parishes. Working in partnership with the local hospital, Mark discovered the unique struggles that face community hospitals and began to explore solutions that would meet the needs of healthcare organizations and the patients they serve. These efforts led to the development of quality psychiatric and physical rehabilitation outpatient and inpatient services offered throughout Louisiana. The Compass Health Home Office is located in Crowley, Louisiana.
