Mission and programs · 2024

Mission

To deliver compassionate care by advancing the physical and spiritual well-being of the communities we serve through smart medicine and exceptional service.

Activities or mission (Part I)

Provide quality medical care based on the needs and demographics of north central North Dakota.

  • Good Samaritan Hospital Association (GSHA) is a nonprofit healthcare organization owned by 20 local churches representing all Christian denominations in the area. Each year, these churches elect a board of trustees at an annual meeting, and this board serves as the legal governing body responsible for the Association. GSHA is dedicated to providing comprehensive healthcare services to the community of Rugby, ND, and its surrounding areas.GSHA operates a 25-bed licensed acute/swing bed critical access hospital, three rural health clinics (located in Rugby, Dunseith, and Maddock), a surgery department, a provider-based surgical clinic and (Continued on Schedule O)pain clinic, 18 skilled nursing home beds, 60 basic care beds, and 37 assisted living apartments. Additionally, we offer a robust hospital-based hospice program, serving the community with compassionate end-of-life care.In response to the current economic challenges and the lingering effects of COVID-19, we have seen an increase in the need for charity care. To address this, GSHA provided an estimated $322,000 in charity care services for the year ending March 31, 2024 (calculated by multiplying the ratio of costs to gross charges for the Organization by the gross uncompensated charges associated with providing charity care to its patients). Our CEO has actively engaged the community through numerous health updates on the radio, educating the public about new initiatives and changes from CMS.GSHA offered a variety of community-focused programs and services to improve health outcomes, promote wellness, and support underserved populations. These programs included:-Free or reduced-fee flu shot clinics-Diabetic education and chronic care management programs-Participation in health fairs and community events-Health education outreach, including radio updates from the CEO, school presentations, senior meal support through Meals on Wheels, and public forums-Volunteer ambulance services and EMT training courses-Free blood pressure screenings and wellness/physical therapy programs-Meeting space for local groups and churches-CPR and first aid training for the communityGSHA also maintains strong partnerships with CNA, LPN, and RN training programs, supporting clinical rotations, internships, and career pathways for future healthcare professionals through a regional healthcare education consortium. Our Diabetes Education program offers various nutrition classes focused on maintaining and controlling diabetes. Through our 340b program, patients can request free test strips from our DME department, ensuring they have the necessary supplies for effective diabetes management. Furthermore, we host a monthly diabetes support group to assist patients and their families in managing the condition through shared experiences and expert advice.The Ambulance Service is operated by GSHA after the community was unable to sustain it as a volunteer service. We staff the ambulance 24/7, respond to all 911 calls in our area, and provide community services such as home blood draws for those unable to make it to the hospital. The operation of the ambulance service is subsidized through a mill levy and a state grant.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us.
