Concordia Lutheran Ministries is the parent company of a network of organizations that provide a full senior care suite of services that include skilled nursing, inpatient rehabilitation, outpatient rehabilitation, personal care/assisted living, independent living, memory care, adult day, childcare, home care, durable medical equipment, pharmacy, and hospice services. For 140 years, Concordia Lutheran Ministries has been a place with a mission of caring, healing, and comfort provided through heartfelt Christian faith and a strong sense of service to others. The Organization, its subsidiaries, and its over 3,100 employees continued to provide high quality services to the residents in its care as it has done throughout its existence, continuing its CARF accreditation for excellence, and having multiple facilities rated 5 stars by the Center of Medicare and Medicaid Services during the fiscal year. Through its ministries, the Organization served over 45,000 residents/patients through its 19 organizations with its home and community-based service organizations providing over 450,000 caregiving visits in the last year alone. In pursuit of its mission, the Organization incurred expenses related to management including community benefit expenses, as well as the research and acquisition of retirement communities, skilled nursing facilities, and personal care facilities. These expenses include legal and accounting fees, travel to facility sites, meetings related to acquisition decisions, and other research costs including management's time.
The organization was affected by the COVID-19 pandemic in many ways, but through the perseverance of its staff and managers, the organization has been able to weather the storm very well. The organization was able to secure sufficient levels of personal protective equipment ensuring that no staff member would go without protection through the pandemic. Between PPE, UV light sanitizers and other new technologies, cleaning products, hand sanitizer, and much more, Concordia has invested nearly half a million dollars into protecting its staff and the patients in its care. A key factor in both retaining employees and fighting COVID-19 is comprehensive and ongoing training. Continuous job-specific education was a focus for the organization including hand hygiene, doffing and donning PPE, sanitizing high-touch surface areas frequently and, much more. To show its appreciation to its employees, the organization and its subsidiaries implemented over 1.8 million dollars in incentive programs for employees to show appreciation for their response to the pandemic. In a year affected deeply by the COVID-19 pandemic, Concordia' has not only persevered but rose to the challenge and proved themselves worthy of the reputation the organization has built over the last 140 years. Even those who worked through the tough battle of dealing with positive COVID-19 cases did so with professionalism and grace and did the best for their residents daily.
Through the Organization and its subsidiaries, the charitable mission of Concordia Lutheran Ministries was expressed in multiple ways. The Organization and its subsidiaries were able to provide over $2,000,000 in donations and grants to various charities in the Organization's local areas of operations and to individuals across the world in need. These donations and grants include support for but not limited to: soup kitchens, homeless shelters, church ministries, AIDS orphans in Africa, camps for grieving children after parental losses, and natural disaster relief. In addition to providing the donations and grants, the Organization and its subsidiaries continued their missions by providing over $12,300,000 in benevolent care to over 650 residents who exhausted their funds while entrusted to the Organization's care. The Organization is proud to say that in its 140 year history, it has never discharged a resident due to an inability to pay. In addition to providing for those in need, the Organization and its subsidiaries offer a full suite of affordable benefits to its over 3,100 employees including a health insurance program facilitated though the Organization. In addition to offering traditional benefits to its employees, the Organization has also provided countless scholarships, gifts, and other incentives to showcase its commitment to being the employer of choice for its operating areas.
