When did the Carville, LA leper colony close to residential treatment?

I realize this seems “google-able”, but I have tried for over an hour and can’t find the exact date.

All patients were free to leave in the 1960’s, I believe…..yet many chose to remain at the facility.

Specifically, I am trying to find when the last patient either died or was moved from the facility.
