Mission

The mission is to establish and maintain programs which provide supportive care for terminally ill patients and their families; and to provide associated services including, but not limited to, operations of a non-profit hospice. The goal is to empower the community to understand the blessings of hospice and how the service can help those in an extremely difficult time in their lives.

Program accomplishments

• Good Samaritan Hospice (GSH) remains dedicated to excellent patient/family care, ethical practice in the management of funds and community activities contributing to improved education and understanding of quality of life at the end of life. The foundation of hospice is comfort care-managing pain and symptoms-to improve their overall quality of life while nearing the end of their journey. GSH provided care to 1,290 patients and their families in the community by providing 54,208 visits in their homes. Good Samaritan Hospice had 65 overall active volunteers. In addition, there are 3 volunteers who are active in the Angels on Call program for Good Samaritan Hospice. Angels on Call is a program which provides volunteers to sit with those patients at the End of Life. Volunteers offer anything from scripture to hymns, and simple companionship. The active volunteers participated in bereavement, clerical, patient service, inpatient unit support, and special events. Initial and ongoing training was provided to the volunteers who enrolled to be a part of this program. Other volunteers were able to offer help from home by making "memory quilts" for surviving family members out of personal clothing and fabric special to the deceased. We also experienced a great interest in the "Veteran's Blankets" which are given to those who serve in a branch of the military. The greatest volunteer requests we receive are from caregivers/family members trying to care for their loved ones at home. Caregivers may need to take a break to go to a doctor's appointment or get groceries. Some of our volunteers also visit or call family members at home after a patient passed away to comfort them in a time of bereavement. Hospice has several volunteers with certified pet therapy animals that visit families and offer emotional support. Volunteers also assist with office functions such as filing, organizing, creating admission packets, processing mail, creating thank you baskets for clinicians, and making condolence calls to those who have lost a loved one. Good Samaritan Hospice volunteers played a part in special events, meetings, and activities held throughout the year. Several of the special events included a volunteer recruitment day in Monroeville Community Park, where volunteer opportunities were discussed with 250 participants during a 4 hour event. Another recruitment event was held in Cranberry Township over the course of three days with over 5,000 participants. Education included on-site interviews for volunteers and opportunities offered by Good Samaritan Hospice. Other events included multiple youth bereavement events, memorial services, Holiday Grief Workshop, and a Memorial butterfly release. Over the course of the past fiscal year, Good Samaritan Hospice volunteers provided a total of 1,779 hours of service with a dollar value of $61,891 non-patient related volunteer hours totaled 115 hours of service. Free grief support groups were offered in Beaver, Butler and Allegheny County for those bereaved of our services and for those in the community. There were a total of 6 grief support sessions in all three communities which provided service to 16 participants. The Holiday Workshop was held on November 19, 2024 supported 20 participants. The Family Support Services Team offered over 95 hours of time to prepare, schedule and implement the event. Good Samaritan hosted two afternoon of remembrance memorial programs on April 26, 2025 at the Middlesex office location and May 31, 2025 at Concordia Villa St. Joseph chapel. Volunteers offered 56 hours of their time to prepare, plan and hold these events which served 17 family members. Hospice staff members provided education and information at no cost to over 1,837 individuals and their family members regarding their disease state, concerns, healthcare wishes and hospice and palliative care insurance options within the counties served, prior to their decision regarding care. It is estimated GSH tallied over 918 hours providing hospice information and education. Total donations and sponsorships during the fiscal year equated to $47,117. Additional indirect contributions have been provided to 501(c)(3) member hospital systems at a total of $6,000,000 to help expand the like-minded mission within the geographical communities that we serve. Donations given to local organizations included: $25,000 to Knoch School District for Wellness Center renovations, $5,000 to Community Foundation of Western North Carolina, over $4,200 of furniture was donated to Blessing Board and The Lighthouse Foundation, and other organizations that were supported include: Concordia at the Orchard Applefest $282, CLM Foundation Golf Outing and Spring Fling Luncheon $406, St. John's Lutheran Church $100, Alzheimer's Association $50, and Butler County Chamber of Commerce $50.

Employees of Good Samaritan Hospice were given the opportunity to serve the community by participating in several Mission Events organized by Concordia Care Network dba Concordia Community Support Services. These are part of an ongoing Mission Committee that was formed to organize opportunities for employees to serve the community. Here are the Mission Events that GSH took part in during the 2024-2025 fiscal year.

• GSH also offers Inpatient care for help in the assessment and management of acute, complex, or uncontrolled symptoms such as pain or shortness of breath. The Inpatient Unit in Wexford, PA focuses on caring for patients with high acuity that cannot be managed at home, such as complicated delivery mechanisms i.e., subcutaneous, frequent dose titration, and skilled nursing care with frequent monitoring can be provided in the general inpatient setting. GSH provided this level of care to 283 patients and their families during this fiscal year end; 4,278 visits were provided to patients in the Inpatient Unit. The hospice staff are available in this specific setting around the clock to consult and provide support to families as they journey through the progression of the disease. Short-term respite care is also provided by nursing staff to alleviate the burden on family caregivers. Good Samaritan Hospice had 65 overall active volunteers. The active volunteers participated in bereavement, clerical, patient service, inpatient unit support, and special events. These volunteers visit patients, read them stories, create craft projects, play music, sing, and provide pet therapy visits. In addition, they provide spiritual support through prayer, singing hymns, scripture reading, and simply offer a quiet, calm presence during the last few hours of life. A team of volunteers worked diligently at beautifying the flower gardens at our inpatient unit in Wexford, PA. The patients and families have thoroughly enjoyed the beautiful landscape and flower arrangements. Over each holiday season, our volunteers graciously help decorate our inpatient units making them feel welcoming for families and visitors. Volunteers routinely bake treats and cook meals for our inpatient units; these homecooked meals are appreciated by families and visitors.

• In 2020, Good Samaritan Hospice introduced Youth Bereavement Care (YBC), a division of Family Support Services in order to provide innovative ways to reach grieving children year-round. The program offers free support for youth and young adults who have been affected by the death of a significant person in their lives. YBC is open to not only our hospice and extended Concordia families but also to the greater community. The mission of YBC is to make an impactful difference in the lives of children and teens by providing resources, clinical support and year-round connection with other families who are grieving. Enriched programming provides robust support to children and youth as they navigate their own unique grief. YBC services are free and include a variety of virtual and in-person programming, such as grief counseling, peer support, individual and family groups, grief education and day retreats. YBC is staffed by spiritual counselors, grief and bereavement experts as well as clinicians who are trained in child mental and behavioral health and provide connective resources within the grief community. A free In-Person Event was held on August 2, 2024 at the Middlesex office location called Friday Fun Night. Youth were offered a tour of the newly completed youth bereavement room at Middlesex. Free refreshments were provided. There was a Bounce House, Kona Ice truck, art activities and crafts as well as a photo booth available for the children and families at this event. Nine GSH employees volunteered and gave over 75 hours of time to plan, prepare and execute this event which served 13 children and families. On September 7, 2024, youth bereavement held a superhero workshop at our Middlesex location where the youth created a superhero graphic novel, cape or t-shirt listing their super strengths. Nine GSH employees volunteered and gave 67 hours of time to plan, prepare and execute this event which served 4 children and their families. The Art of Healing workshop was held on March 29, 2025 at the Middlesex location. The event was a creative workshop for children who have lost a loved one and their caregivers. The attendees participated in activities and breakout sessions and created their own artwork. The children and family members were given canvases and a ceramic mug to create during the day. Each person took their completed projects home at the end of the event. Six GSH employees volunteered and gave over 72 hours of time to plan and prepare and execute this workshop which served 20 children and families. On May 2, 2025 the youth bereavement team hosted a May Memory Box event. This event was also at the Middlesex Office location where 3 children and caregivers participated. Each child created a memory box with items special to them or their loved one to help them remember and express emotion regarding their loss. They were also given a book entitled The Memory Box to take home in addition to their finished boxes. Three employees and volunteers spent 38 hours planning and implementing this event. The Youth bereavement program expanded during this year to include educational presentations at local libraries and community events. The social-emotional story time held at the Plum library included a team member reading from the Magical String book, discussing emotions and coping, as well as movement and activities for the children. The library sessions served over 15 children and adults and took 10 hours of time to prepare and present. In addition, the team held education sessions at the Beaver County School Counselor Association. This education provided information on services offered by the Youth Bereavement Program, as well as dates for upcoming programs and events. Sixteen counselors participated in the event which was the result of four hours of staff time to prepare and present. The team also had tables at several community events where education was provided on grief support services as well as the Youth Bereavement program itself. The Freeport Days event reached 19 children and 37 adults and was the result of 16 hours of time supporting the event. Two of our coordinators took part in The Caring Place's Grief Talk Virtual Conference presenting on grief care.
