Jeff Harris & Associates provides executive search for skilled nursing facilities and long-term care organizations nationwide, including stand-alone providers and communities operating within a broader continuum of care.

Nationwide Skilled Nursing & Long-Term Care Executive Search
Jeff Harris & Associates has more than 25 years of experience partnering with skilled nursing and long-term care organizations across the United States.
Leadership in skilled nursing and long-term care requires more than general healthcare experience. Executives must navigate clinical quality, regulatory compliance, reimbursement pressures, workforce challenges, resident outcomes, and complex operating environments. JHA helps organizations identify leaders with the experience and perspective needed to succeed in these settings.
We work with stand-alone facilities, multi-site operators, and providers that are part of a broader senior living continuum, helping them identify experienced executives and senior leaders for a wide range of leadership functions, including:
- Single-Site and Multi-Site Skilled Nursing Organizations
- Corporate Management
- Finance and Accounting
- Operations
- Sales and Marketing
- Dining and Hospitality
- Clinical Management
- Quality Assurance
- Human Resources
Successful skilled nursing and long-term care leadership requires a deep understanding of operations, clinical quality, workforce management, regulatory requirements, financial performance, and resident care. JHA’s executive search process begins with understanding each organization’s specific needs, culture, priorities, and leadership challenges.
Our deep senior living expertise, direct market outreach, and long-standing relationships with executive talent allow us to identify and engage proven leaders, including executives who may not be actively considering a career move. This focused approach helps JHA match skilled nursing and long-term care organizations with leaders whose experience, judgment, and cultural alignment fit the needs of the organization.
Retained
Search
Retained search is most appropriate when a client wants the recruiting firm to conduct a full search, screen all applicants, and narrow the applicant field down to three or four qualified candidates. Each applicant is fully vetted and evaluated on multiple fronts by the recruiting firm, including numerous interviews, screening assessments, full background checks, and references.
Priority
Search
Priority searches are recommended when clients desire their recruiter to invest dedicated time and resources to conduct a thorough, strategic candidate search. Clients have the option of utilizing online candidate screening tools, including DISC temperament Profiles, Wonderlic intelligence assessments, and online pre-recorded interview technology for finalist candidates.
Contingency
Search
Contingency search is an option recommended when the employer will assume responsibility for a majority of the screening and vetting process, and when an employer anticipates interviewing candidates from multiple sources and/or when the hiring needs are less urgent. In such searches, it is expected that the recruiter will assess candidates from our database and conduct a cursory evaluation of local candidates.
