Program accomplishments

  • Concordia Lutheran Ministries of Pittsburgh operates Concordia of the South Hills and Concordia at Villa St. Joseph, two top tier skilled nursing facilities in Western Pennsylvania. Our South Hills location sits atop a picturesque valley in the heart of the South Hills of Pittsburgh, and is very well established in the local community. The Villa St. Joseph community, which is also a Medicaid facility, is positioned just north of the neighborhood of Sewickley Heights, and is surrounded by beautiful, quaint scenery. Beyond just their great locations, our skilled nursing facilities offer some of the top care in the state and strive each and every day to care for your loved ones in the absolute best way possible. As a charity, Concordia also understands that sometimes our loved ones need assistance in paying for their ongoing care. Benevolent care is a core tenant of the mission of Concordia Lutheran Ministries. So much in fact that the parent organization (Concordia Lutheran Ministries) funded Concordia of the South Hills to establish the Caring Fund. Through the use of this fund, a portion is disbursed every year for not only the benevolent care of residents at the facility, but also in an effort to curb the ever increasing costs of keeping pace with technological advances in our industry, all in an effort to increase the resident's quality of life.
    Expenses $24,377,950 · grants $1,556,938 · revenue $25,346,117
  • Concordia of the South Hills Independent Living is a one hundred and twenty-six unit apartment building located in the beautiful and highly regarded Mt. Lebanon neighborhood of the South Hills of Pittsburgh. With its luscious scenery and picturesque views, residents of our premier facility enjoy easy access to both healthcare and professional services, as well as an abundance of retirement amenities, all while enjoying the luxuries of retirement living. From our restaurant style, chef-inspired dining, to our engaging suite of exercise coaches, residents are able to choose from an abundance of social, educational, and fun activities each and every day. As a pillar of the South Hills, Concordia maintains a welcoming relationship with the entire public by way of social gatherings, holiday events and craft shows, and as a result offers engaging interactions between residents and the community. With a growing wait-list, Concordia is committed to ensuring that our establishment upholds the highest caliber of retirement living, all at an affordable price. As part of our mission, however, Concordia also understands the importance of giving back to the local community and strives to help others when given the opportunity. When Concordia purchased this community over a decade ago, none of the entrance fees were transferred to Concordia by the original owner. Instead, out of good faith, the Organization has honored the Life Care benefit of all of those legacy residents and continues to do so to this day.
    Expenses $4,558,120 · grants $1,005,200 · revenue $12,037,318
  • In addition to Concordia of the South Hills, Concordia Lutheran Ministries of Pittsburgh also encompasses the stand alone personal care operations of Concordia of Cranberry, Fox Chapel, Franklin Park, Wexford, and Villa St. Joseph. Personal care is the largest component of the organization's operations with a combined total of 498 licensed personal care beds spread across its five facilities. Although this seems like a high number, the residents in our care receive one-on-one assistance with engaging activities, three chef-inspired, restaurant quality meals, and regular housekeeping and laundry services each and every day. As a charity with an emphasis on benevolent care, Concordia Lutheran Ministries also established the Benevolent Care Fund to help provide charitable care to the residents of the stand alone personal care facilities. The individual organizations have also sponsored Rotary Clubs and various sports teams in their local markets; as well as supported local fire departments with donations to organizations such as the Mount Lebanon Volunteer Fire Department and the Franklin Park Volunteer Fire Department. Memory Support and dementia care is also very important to the organization with two of its facilities providing dedicated memory support care; in addition to providing care ourselves, the organization is also a sponsor of and a donor to the Pittsburgh, PA chapter of the Alzheimer's Association.
