Impact evidence

Describes programs. Its tax return describes what it does but we have found no measurable results in it.

Programs described in its return (1)
  1. $5.2 million spent. THE OZARKS METHODIST MANOR BRINGS INDIVIDUALS AGED 62 AND OVER, A WAY OF SENIOR LIVING KNOWN AS CONTINUING CARE. THIS CONCEPT OFFERS ACTIVE SENIORS A LIFESTYLE WHICH IS DESIGNED TO MEET THEIR UNIQUE NEEDS WHILE ALLOWING THEM FREEDOM TO PURSUE THEIR PERSONAL INTERESTS. CONTINUING CARE COMMUNITIES, SUCH AS THE MANOR, ENCOMPASS THESE IMPORTANT COMPONENTS: A PRIVATE COTTAGE, A WIDE ARRAY OF PERSONAL SERVICES, AND THE SECURITY OF AN ON-SITE PROFESSIONAL HEALTH CENTER. OMM IS A MISSOURI NOT-FOR-PROFIT CORPORATION WHICH IS COMMITTED TO PROVIDING A QUALITY ADULT COMMUNITY WHICH IS FISCALLY SOUND AND GENUINELY RESPONSIVE TO RESIDENT NEEDS. THE RETIREMENT VILLAGE OPERATES A 76-BED RESIDENTIAL CARE FACILITY, 78-BED SKILLED NURSING FACILITY, 58 COTTAGES, AND SUPPORTING SERVICES. THE OZARKS METHODIST MANOR PROVIDES A QUALITY, AFFORDABLE LIFESTYLE FOR OLDER ADULTS THROUGH ITS CONTINUING CARE SENIOR LIVING COMMUNITY. CONSISTENT WITH ITS CHARITABLE MISSION, THE ORGANIZATION IS COMMITTED TO ENSURING THAT RESIDENTS ARE NOT DENIED HOUSING OR SERVICES DUE TO FINANCIAL HARDSHIP. IN FURTHERANCE OF THIS MISSION, THE ORGANIZATION PROVIDES HARDSHIP ASSISTANCE AND ABSORBS OTHER FORMS OF UNCOMPENSATED CARE FOR RESIDENTS WHO EXPERIENCE FINANCIAL DIFFICULTY. DURING THE YEAR, THE OZARKS METHODIST MANOR PROVIDED HARDSHIP ASSISTANCE TO QUALIFYING RESIDENTS WHO DEMONSTRATED AN INABILITY TO PAY THE FULL COST OF CARE DUE TO LIMITED INCOME OR UNFORESEEN FINANCIAL CIRCUMSTANCES. HARDSHIP ASSISTANCE IS EVALUATED BASED ON ESTABLISHED FINANCIAL CRITERIA AND IS GRANTED IN A MANNER INTENDED TO PRESERVE RESIDENTS' DIGNITY WHILE ALLOWING THEM TO REMAIN IN A STABLE LIVING ENVIRONMENT. THESE DISCOUNTS REPRESENT A DIRECT CHARITABLE BENEFIT PROVIDED BY THE ORGANIZATION IN SUPPORT OF ITS MISSION TO SERVE OLDER ADULTS IN THE COMMUNITY. IN ADDITION TO HARDSHIP ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS, THE OZARKS METHODIST MANOR INCURRED BAD DEBTS AND OTHER UNCOMPENSATED AMOUNTS ARISING FROM RESIDENT ACCOUNTS THAT WERE UNCOLLECTIBLE DESPITE THE ORGANIZATION'S REASONABLE EFFORTS TO WORK WITH RESIDENTS AND THEIR FAMILIES. THESE AMOUNTS REFLECT SERVICES AND HOUSING PROVIDED FOR WHICH FULL PAYMENT WAS NOT RECEIVED AND CONSTITUTE ANOTHER FORM OF UNCOMPENSATED CARE IN FURTHERANCE OF THE ORGANIZATION'S EXEMPT PURPOSE. TOGETHER, HARDSHIP ASSISTANCE AND OTHER UNCOMPENSATED CARE UNDERSCORE THE OZARKS METHODIST MANOR'S ONGOING COMMITMENT TO SUPPORTING SENIORS WHO MAY OTHERWISE LACK ACCESS TO SAFE, AFFORDABLE HOUSING AND SUPPORTIVE SERVICES. BY ABSORBING THESE COSTS, THE ORGANIZATION FURTHERS ITS CHARITABLE MISSION AND CONTINUES TO SERVE INDIVIDUALS AGED 62 AND OVER WITH COMPASSION, STABILITY, AND RESPECT. THE OZARKS METHODIST MANOR PROMOTES THE SPIRITUAL WELLNESS OF RESIDENTS THROUGH CHAPLAIN SUPPORT, ON-SITE WORSHIP SERVICES, DEVOTIONS, AND BIBLE STUDIES. THESE SERVICES PROVIDE SPIRITUAL GUIDANCE, EMOTIONAL COMFORT, AND OPPORTUNITIES FOR FAITH-BASED REFLECTION AND COMMUNITY. PROGRAMMING IS ACCESSIBLE TO RESIDENTS OF VARYING ABILITIES AND IS DELIVERED WITH RESPECT. SPIRITUAL CARE PROGRAMS SUPPORT RESIDENTS' OVERALL WELL-BEING AND QUALITY OF LIFE BY FOSTERING HOPE, DIGNITY, AND CONNECTION.
