Overview
Mission
The Georgia infirmary is recognized as the first hospital for african-americans in the nation. The organization serves as a day health provider for the chronically ill, disabled, and elderly and rents housing for low and moderate income persons.
What it reported doing in 2024
The Georgia infirmary (gai) offers a variety of services for the elderly and disabled, including an alternative to nursing home placement for disabled and chronically ill adults. The adult day health program provides the elderly and physically disabled with daytime care and supervision. Registered nurses provide skilled services and serve as liaisons between doctors and families. Participants receive a blend of primary medical care, preventative care and supportive services. Case managers arrange and monitor services, making sure participants receive timely and effective care. The organization also manages housing for low and moderate income persons. As part of its social accountability responsibility, gai provides meeting and office space in its building for committee groups at no charge (i.e., the 100 black men, african-american health initiative, latin- american service organization (laso), the disability planning committee of the sav-chatham metro planning organization, the community cardio-vascular council, black nurses association, etc.).
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Earned-program. 90% 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
SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Few specific pay-setting methods are documented in the filing; unanswered boxes are not proof of absence and some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered.
