THE EVANGELICAL LUTHERAN GOOD SAMARITAN SOCIETY

The Evangelical Lutheran Good Samaritan Society specializes in delivering skilled nursing care services through licensed nursing facilities, providing comprehensive long-term care for elderly and medically complex veterans. Their core capabilities include 24/7 clinical oversight, rehabilitation services, medication management, and person-centered care planning aligned with VA standards for skilled nursing facilities. They demonstrate deep expertise in managing chronic conditions, post-acute recovery, and behavioral health support within a residential care environment, with a focus on regulatory compliance, infection control, and interdisciplinary care coordination. Their operational model emphasizes dignity, continuity of care, and integration with VA clinical workflows, distinguishing them through consistent adherence to federal quality metrics and resident-centered service delivery. The organization maintains a sustained relationship with the Department of Veterans Affairs, consistently providing community-based nursing home services under VA-funded programs. Their work supports VA’s mission to extend high-quality, accessible long-term care to veterans who require skilled nursing but do not need hospital-level care, often through contracts for community nursing home arrangements that supplement VA-operated facilities. Their primary industry focus is on Nursing Care Facilities (NAICS 623110), where they operate as a provider of skilled nursing services in community settings, serving as an extension of federal veterans’ healthcare networks. They specialize in the delivery of Medicare/Medicaid-compliant skilled care, rehabilitation therapies, and palliative services within a licensed institutional environment, positioning them as a trusted non-federal provider in the veterans’ long-term care ecosystem. As a nonprofit entity structured under 8H (nonprofit organization), they operate from Stillwater, Minnesota, with a regional footprint focused on serving veteran populations in the Upper Midwest. While they hold no formal government certifications, their operational model is calibrated to meet stringent federal healthcare standards, and their consistent engagement with the VA underscores their reliability as a provider in the federal long-term care market.
