Overview of Golden Age Healthcare and Rehabilitation Center

Located about 20 miles east of Baton Rouge on Highway 16, Golden Age Healthcare and Rehabilitation Center is a skilled nursing facility in Denham Springs, Louisiana. Plantation Management Company owns and operates the home. It serves residents who need short-term post-acute rehabilitation as well as those requiring ongoing nursing care. Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay are accepted, providing families with flexible coverage options.

The 175-bed facility has a high occupancy rate of 98%. Residents typically stay an average of 338 days, including the rehab population recovering from surgery or hospitalization and those who remain for longer-term skilled nursing. Daily nurse staffing averages 3 hours and 30 minutes per resident, combining the work of registered nurses, nursing aides, and licensed practical nurses. It’s a substantial foundation for hands-on clinical support.

The residential environment focuses on privacy and comfort. All rooms feature private bathrooms, flat-screen televisions, and cable service. Beauty salon services, on-site chaplain visits, and a chapel for spiritual care are available on-site.

Residents have access to scheduled medical transportation for appointments outside the home, flexible visiting hours, and a recreational activity program. Wi-Fi access, laundry, and housekeeping services support daily living, and courtyards provide outdoor space.

Families touring the home will find it car-dependent, so transportation must be planned before visiting. The Louisiana Department of Health, Health Standards Section, inspects the facility and maintains an active quality assurance process. The extensive amenity offerings and strong staffing foundation make Golden Age a great choice for residents and families seeking comprehensive rehabilitative or custodial nursing care in South Louisiana.

vs avg

5 of 6 metrics below state avg

Standout metric LPN / LVN is +6% above state avg

Staff type	Hours / Day / Resident	vs state avg
Registered Nurse (RN) RNs hold the highest nursing license and can assess residents, interpret test results, and direct care plans. More RN hours per day often signals stronger clinical oversight and faster response to health changes.	7m per day	▼ 63% State avg: 19m per day · National avg: 41m per day
LPN / LVN Licensed Practical Nurses (LPNs) or Licensed Vocational Nurses (LVNs) deliver routine hands-on care — medication administration, wound dressing, and monitoring vital signs. They work under RN supervision and make up a large share of daily bedside care.	1h 15m per day	▲ 6% State avg: 1h 11m per day · National avg: 52m per day
Nurse Aide Certified Nurse Aides (CNAs) provide the most direct day-to-day assistance: bathing, dressing, feeding, and mobility. Nurse aide hours are typically the largest staffing category and directly affect residents' quality of life.	2h 1m per day	▼ 13% State avg: 2h 19m per day · National avg: 2h 20m per day
Weekend Total Nursing Combined nursing hours (RN + LPN + Nurse Aide) per resident per day on weekends. Staffing often drops on weekends — this figure reveals whether the facility maintains adequate coverage outside of weekday hours.	2h 53m per day	▼ 12% State avg: 3h 16m per day · National avg: 3h 26m per day
Physical Therapist Hours per resident per day provided by licensed Physical Therapists (PTs) or PT Assistants. PT services help residents recover mobility after injury or illness and are especially important for post-acute (short-stay) rehabilitation.	0m per day	▼ 100% State avg: 3m per day · National avg: 4m per day
Weekend RN Registered nurse hours specifically on weekends. Facilities sometimes reduce RN presence on Saturdays and Sundays — a low weekend RN figure compared to weekday hours can indicate reduced clinical oversight when most administrative staff are absent.	5m per day	▼ 60% State avg: 13m per day · National avg: 28m per day
