Police said the woman was at her Ninth Avenue apartment at around 2.40 pm when two bandits entered through the front door and demanded valuables.
The woman was beaten with a pistol while one of the bandits stole her cellphone and $18,200 in cash.
The bandits then fled the house in a silver Nissan B15.
Officers of the Barataria CID responded and took the woman to hospital.
