What it reported doing in 2024

Hospice - the organization provides hospice services in the home or in a nursing facility to those persons wishing to remain in a familiar environment during their final days, providing comfort and peace to patients and families thorugh a staff of registered nurses, medical social workers, aide and other professionals. The organization also provides the option of services in its seven-bed inpatient facility and other facilities including deaconess hospital for those persons who can no longer be adequately cared for at home.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 99% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

MIXED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. A relatively small share of voting board members are independent and few specific pay-setting methods are documented in the filing; unanswered boxes are not proof of absence.
