Operated under the Willis-Knighton Health System – one of the most recognized healthcare brands in northwest Louisiana – the Willis-Knighton Extended Care Center is located at 2600 Kings Highway in Shreveport.

Although smaller in capacity at 24 beds, the Willis-Knighton Extended Care Center’s position within a major regional health system is a significant advantage for appropriate patients. Hospital-affiliated extended care facilities are particularly well-suited for seniors transitioning directly from inpatient care who require ongoing skilled nursing support, specialist follow-up, or complex medication management. Kings Highway is one of Shreveport’s primary medical corridors, with multiple health system campuses and specialty clinics in the surrounding area.
