Overview

Mission

Improve the health of every person in our community through the efficient delivery of excellent, innovative and compassionate care.

What it reported doing in 2024

Home health care is a program designed to provide comprehensive health services to selected patients who can be cared for at home, thus reducing the expense associated with hospitalization, and allowing patients to be treated in the comfort and familiarity of their own homes. These services include skilled nursing, therapies (physical, occupational and speech), medical social services and home health aides. The program also provides community-based services such as immunizations, health checks, screenings and clinics regardless of an individuals ability to pay.

Operating model

Revenue model
Other-operating. 99% of the money available for current operations came from other operating revenue.
Distribution model
Cannot be determined from the filing. The program-spending lines do not add up, so the filing cannot show reliably whether the nonprofit works directly or through others.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Expenses are high relative to revenue and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
