CMS (the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services) is the federal agency that rates nursing home quality. Its Overall Rating runs from 1 to 5 stars, combining health inspections, staffing, and quality measures, with inspections weighted most heavily.
An average stay of 970 days is not a rehabilitation statistic. It’s a long-term care statistic, and at Harmony House Nursing and Rehabilitation in Shreveport, it’s the number that frames everything else. People come here and stay for close to three years on average. The neighborhood has a Walk Score of 34, meaning transportation handles most trips, which is standard for a facility built around extended residency rather than short-stay recovery.
The clinical infrastructure reflects that long-term orientation. Total nursing care runs 4 hours and 24 minutes per resident daily: aides carry 2 hours 30 minutes, LPNs and LVNs contribute 46 minutes, and RNs hold 21 minutes.
Beyond the nursing breakdown, the on-site staffing list is unusually deep: a physician is on staff, a nurse practitioner works in-house, and psychiatrist visits and mental health professional visits happen on a structured schedule, not as referrals. Alzheimer’s and dementia care is confirmed, backed by a dedicated security system for residents prone to wandering.
Residents stay in private or semi-private suites. Meals come from a registered dietician-supervised kitchen and run toward homestyle, with special diet accommodations built in. The courtyard with gazebo, therapeutic whirlpool baths, arts and crafts center, day room, landscaped grounds, and in-house religious services fill out a lifestyle layer that makes sense for a facility where people settle in for years.
Physical, occupational, and speech therapy are on-site. Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay are all accepted.
Harmony House is built for long-term residency with a clinical depth that goes beyond standard nursing home staffing. The psychiatric and mental health support, the dementia security, and the breadth of on-site services reflect a population whose needs extend across physical, cognitive, and emotional dimensions over an extended stay.
The Overall CMS Rating combines results from health inspections, staffing levels and quality measures. Health inspections carry the most weight. Staffing and quality scores can increase or decrease the final rating based on performance compared to state and national standards.
Based on the results of the facility's three most recent standard inspections and any complaint investigations. CMS reviews the number, scope, and severity of deficiencies, with more recent findings weighted more heavily.
Measures average nursing staff hours per resident per day, including Registered Nurses (RNs) and total nursing staff. Ratings are adjusted based on the level of care residents require and are compared to state and national benchmarks.
Based on clinical and physical health indicators reported to CMS, such as hospital readmissions, falls, pressure ulcers, and improvements in mobility. These measures reflect how well residents' health needs are being managed.
Daily nursing hours per resident by staff type, reported to CMS. Higher is generally better — compare this facility to state and national averages to see where staffing stands.
This home is ranked 42nd out of 199 homes in Louisiana for nurse hours. Total adjusted nursing hours per resident per day, combining RN, LPN, and aide time. CMS adjusts this for case-mix so facilities can be fairly compared.
| 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.
| 21m per day | ▲ 10% 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.
| 46m per day | ▼ 35% 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 30m per day | ▲ 7% State avg: 2h 20m per day · National avg: 2h 21m 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.
| 3h 12m per day | ■ Avg 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.
| 1m per day | ▼ 65% 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.
| 11m per day | ▼ 15% State avg: 13m per day · National avg: 29m per day |

Based on CMS SNF Cost Report for fiscal year ending in 03/2024.
Net patient revenue — what the home actually collects for resident care, after contractual allowances, bad debt and discounts are subtracted from its gross charges (CMS cost report, Worksheet G-3). It covers resident care only; money the home earns from other sources is shown separately as "Other income."
Net patient income: net patient revenue minus the home's total operating expenses. A positive figure means it earns more from resident care than it spends to deliver it; a negative figure means the opposite. It excludes non-operating "other income."

Money the home earns outside of resident care — such as investments, grants, rentals and other non-operating sources (CMS cost report, Worksheet G-3). It is tracked separately from net patient revenue: it is not part of that figure, and it is not included in net patient income.
Staff salaries plus wage-related costs — benefits such as payroll taxes, health insurance and retirement — from the home's own accounting records (CMS cost report, Worksheet A). Contract or agency labor is counted separately, under other operating costs.
Rank #88 / 203Payroll — State benchmarkedThis home is ranked 88th out of 203 homes in Louisiana. Shows total annual staff payroll benchmarked to the Louisiana average.

Payroll as a share of revenue: staff salaries and wage-related benefits divided by net patient revenue. A higher figure means more of each revenue dollar goes to staff pay.
Rank #115 / 203Payroll % — State benchmarkedThis home is ranked 115th out of 203 homes in Louisiana. Shows payroll as a percentage of revenue versus the Louisiana average. Well-run Louisiana facilities typically land around 54–67% — the top third Statewide.
