Program accomplishments

  • American Lutheran Homes, Inc. (ALH) operates as a charitable organization consistent with the requirements of Internal Revenue Code Section 501(c)(3). ALH provides long term care services including skilled nursing care, transitional care, assisted living, and basic care services. ALH does not discriminate against individuals in the admissions process or in the delivery of care with regard to ability to pay for services. The assisted living and basic care facilities operated by ALH primarily serve low-income elderly residents. The organization's cash reserves are generally applied to expansion and replacement of existing facilities and equipment, amortization of Continued on Schedule O...mortgages, improvements in resident care, training and education, and community benefit activities.The governing board of ALH is made up of leaders in the Fargo-Moorhead-West Fargo business community. Consistent with its charitable mission, ALH provides community benefit to the area served. In 2024, community benefit activities included:-Endings & Beginnings - a support group for family members dealing with a loved one diagnosed with dementia. -Virtual Dementia/Sensitivity Training - provided to employees and community members. This training program teaches participants about the challenges and frustrations of an elderly nursing home resident in managing day-to-day tasks and activities. Participants learn through active involvement in a simulation exercise what it is like to be challenged by issues such as hearing impairment, deteriorating vision, dementia, loss of control of their environment, and communication difficulties. -Volunteerism - coordinates a volunteer program that included approximately 213 volunteers giving over 13,962 hours of service, providing mental stimulation and emotional support to ALH's 294 elderly residents.
