In the Sanctuary of Outcasts
Unsurprisingly, not the only book set at that facility in Carville.
Stephen R. Donaldson's The Chronicles of Thomas Covenant kicks off its inaugural story, Lord Foul's Bane with the protagonist dealing with a leprosy (Hansen's Disease) diagnosis and treatment in Carville, before embarking on a fantasy adventure in another universe.
As a product of LSU's ROTC program in the late 1980s and a Louisiana National Guard member whose unit was on the grounds of the hospital and museum, I am very familiar with the facility, at least as it was 10 to 20 years ago.
