Programs

  1. Western Horizons Living Centers (whlc) operates a 45 bed skilled nursing facility. In addition to the basic daily routine care, staff also provide physical therapy, occupational therapy, activities, and social services to the residents. On average, long-term care services were provided to 37 residents per day for this reporting period. There were 13,476 skilled nursing days with about 58% of those days being medicaid certified. Throughout the year, whlc and community individuals/groups provided many varied forms of programming, including exercise groups, musical entertainment, bingo, van trips, community outings, social events, monthly birthday parties, educational programs, movies and bedside activities. Local clergy and facility staff conducted regular worship services and bible studies for residents. A group of local ladies weekly volunteer their services in hairdressing for the residents.

  2. In addition to the skilled nursing facility, whlc operated a 16-unit assisted living facility known as western horizons assisted living (whal). It provides handicap accessible bathrooms in the rooms, electric door openers throughout the facility, and is all on one level to provide easy accessibility to the tenants. Whal operates charitably by meeting the physical, emotional, recreational, social, religious, and similar needs of elderly people. Some of the activities include card playing, gardening, weekly religious gatherings, and social interaction with each other or family visitors. Staff also provides other health-related services including bathing, hair, skin and nail care, dressing, assistance with mobility, communication and reminders, medication management, housekeeping and laundry services, meal planning and preparation, exercise program, and monitoring blood sugars, vital signs and oxygen. While there has been some turnover throughout the year due to death and/or the tenant needing a higher level of care, the facility maintains a high occupancy percentage due to steady demand for this level of care.

The organization over time

Each line starts at 100 in 2018, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2018, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.
