Overview

Mission

Our mission is to demonstrate Gods love for his people through life enhancing supportive services for older adults and their families. There is a specialness about Lakeview Methodist Health Care Center that is not seen, but felt. The aura of love and concern and dedication to our Mission is evident in every act and every word. That mission of sharing God’s love is our uppermost desire. It guides us and defines us. We are eager to be the best we can be for the people we serve. Five decades ago, Lakeview was built for the purpose of caring for those no longer able to care for themselves. This rich heritage is never forgotten; we are reminded of the very hard work of our founders in the Methodist churches and their undying perseverance to see Lakeview become a reality.

What it reported doing in 2024

Lakeview methodist health care center offers skilled nursing care, rehabilitation services, long-term placement, and houses a child day care center. During the fiscal year the care center provided 23,108 inpatient service days. The organization also manages an assisted living and housing unit for the elderly.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 80% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 99% 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

STRONG - The filed numbers largely add up and a large share of available resources goes toward mission work. Liabilities are high compared with assets.
