Press on Toward the Goal<br />

Embracing the Upward Call


Dear Friends of <strong>Presbyterian</strong> <strong>Homes</strong> & services,<br />

I am privileged to begin my service in <strong>2011</strong> as the 13th chair of the board of directors,<br />

the seat first occupied by Dr. Edwin Kagin, followed by Dr. Irving West and successive<br />

leaders who have shaped and carried PHS for over a half-century. My fellow board<br />

members and I stand on their shoulders looking forward as we roll out the 5-year<br />

strategic plan introduced in this edition of <strong>Perspectives</strong>. The plan translates the<br />

clarion call to press on and aim high to enrich the lives of older adults and reflect the<br />

love of God.<br />

Taking into account the changing landscape and challenging times within our world,<br />

we affirm our primary commitment to the residents, clients and families we currently<br />

serve and prepare for a growing population of those soon entering retirement.<br />

Equipping us are the leaders and staff, volunteers and supporters of PHS whose<br />

contributions fulfill the vision to provide more choices and opportunities for more<br />

older adults to live well. They are the stewards of past, present and future for this<br />

organization.<br />

This edition of <strong>Perspectives</strong> describes the upward call through story and statement,<br />

report and recognition. The Year 2010 Annual Report details the organizational<br />

and fiscal performance of the past year, the Social Accountability Report gives an<br />

account of contributions PHS has made to benefit the larger society, and the Donor<br />

Recognition salutes those whose generosity has supported the mission and ministry<br />

this past year and into the future. It has been a good year. We thank God for the<br />

blessing of accomplishments that measure how well we fulfill our mission, and<br />

challenges that teach us new understanding.<br />

We have much to learn and much to do. On behalf of the board I ask you to pray with<br />

us to remain receptive to God’s voice and align our work to God’s will. We trust in<br />

Christ who goes before us and the Holy Spirit who illuminates the way. On behalf of<br />

the board I thank you for your continued confidence and involvement in PHS. May<br />

God give us all the grace to press on with courage and faith.<br />

Together in Christ,<br />

Ruth Omundson, an early employee of The<br />

<strong>Presbyterian</strong> Home, and one of the first residents<br />

of The Mayfield, helped set standards of service<br />

that are now hallmarks of PHS. Soon after her<br />

death last summer, her family discovered a<br />

treasure of PHS history among her personal<br />

belongings. Her many saved items, along with<br />

those who loved her, tell Ruth’s story.<br />

News and Events of PHS Communities<br />

Creative Senior Dining<br />

Creative Senior Dining (CSD) began the<br />

Year <strong>2011</strong> as the supplier for nutrition<br />

services to low-income seniors in Ramsey<br />

and Washington Counties funded through<br />

the Title III Federal Older Americans Act.<br />

CSD offers over 80 entrees delivered to<br />

homes weekly or daily. It offers In Touch,<br />

a program for participants who prefer<br />

weekly meal delivery, but also want a<br />

daily check-in. CSD also provides hot<br />

meals to 38 congregate dining centers<br />

in the Twin Cities area including sites<br />

that accommodate culinary preferences<br />

of native American, Cambodian and<br />

Sudanese communities. Over 4,000<br />

seniors are currently served through<br />

home-delivered or dining center meals.<br />

A gift of $600,000 from area<br />

foundations will advance plans for a new<br />

commissary kitchen. Over 60,000 meals<br />

will be prepared monthly at the kitchen,<br />

located at the Hamline Center in<br />

Roseville, Mn. CSD home-delivered<br />

meals are also available for general<br />

purchase by calling 651-746-8200 or<br />

online at www.creativeseniordining.org.<br />

Hospice<br />

<strong>Presbyterian</strong> <strong>Homes</strong> & <strong>Services</strong> hospice<br />

care program received its first client<br />

in October 2010. Hospice provides a<br />

comfortable means of living out the<br />

remaining days of life surrounded by loved<br />

ones. Medical care, pain management, as<br />

well as emotional and spiritual support<br />

are expressly tailored to the needs and<br />

wishes of the client and their family. An<br />

interdisciplinary team of professionals<br />

includes nurses, home care aides, social<br />

workers, spiritual caregivers, counselors,<br />

and trained volunteers. Hospice services are<br />

covered by Medicare, Medicaid and most<br />

private insurance plans. For information,<br />

contact 651-746-8200.<br />

2010 Memory Walk—On the<br />

MOVE to end Alzheimer’s<br />

15 PHS communities participated in<br />

Memory Walk events and activities during<br />

the fall of 2010. Specific community<br />

involvement is detailed on page 27. This<br />

year, The Memory Walk will become The<br />

Walk to End Alzheimer’s. This new name<br />

for the Alzheimer’s Association’s signature<br />

event captures the energy, strength and<br />

determination of the growing, national<br />

Alzheimer’s movement. The <strong>2011</strong> Twin Cities<br />

Area walk will be held on Saturday, Sept. 24.<br />

2010 MEMORY WALK: THE DEERFIELD<br />

Croixdale Celebrates 50 Years<br />

Celebrating Community Treasures is the<br />

theme of Croixdale’s 50th Anniversary. Over<br />

5 decades ago, Katherine “Kitty” Anderson<br />

and the St. Croix valley Association of<br />

university Women saw the need for<br />

affordable senior housing. Through their<br />

initiative, Croixdale opened in 1961 with 50<br />

residents. Past years serving older adults<br />

in bayport, Mn and the St. Croix valley<br />

Community Treasure, by Allison Jensen<br />

and a video by the same title produced<br />

by IDream.TV. The anniversary year<br />

includes 50 Acts of Sharing: collaborative<br />

activities with area partners to make<br />

a positive impact in the community.<br />

History and Geography Inspire<br />

PHS Community Name Change<br />

With input from both residents and staff,<br />

<strong>Presbyterian</strong> <strong>Homes</strong> of Roseville announced<br />

its new name, Langton Place. This name<br />

echoes its history when in 1985, Langton<br />

Lake Place was opened. The name was<br />

changed to <strong>Presbyterian</strong> <strong>Homes</strong> of Roseville<br />

in 1992. The new name is also a link to the<br />

community’s geographical location near<br />

Langton Lake Park in Roseville, MN.<br />

Operation Christmas Child:<br />

<strong>Presbyterian</strong> <strong>Homes</strong> of Bloomington<br />

Christmas Boxes Full of Smiles<br />

The joy of giving spread across PHS<br />

communities in autumn 2010 as residents<br />

and staff filled 1600 shoeboxes with<br />

gifts for children living in the world’s<br />

poorest places. 25 communities took<br />

part in Operation Christmas Child; the<br />

highest participation ever with 6 newly<br />

involved communities. Some residents<br />

made hats, mittens, and scarves by hand;<br />

others found small toys or provided school<br />

supplies. New gift ideas included small<br />

sewing kits and tools that are scarce in<br />

developing countries. Stuffed animals were<br />

favorites included in nearly every box. PHS<br />

shoeboxes were delivered by staff and<br />

residents to a local warehouse. The boxes<br />

were included in a shipment of 8 million<br />

delivered to over 100 countries around the<br />

world by Samaritan’s Purse, a charitable<br />

organization founded and led by Franklin<br />

Graham. Over 6,300 hours were devoted<br />

to Operation Christmas Child by some 375<br />

PHS volunteers.<br />

Hope for Liberian School Children<br />

Residents and staff at Langton Place collected<br />

and shipped over 50 boxes of school supplies<br />

to support the Zondo School in rural Liberia.<br />

The faith-based school, enrolling over<br />

500 children, was built and is supported<br />

by the Family of Hope, Inc.—a non-profit<br />

organization with a mission to renew hope<br />

for Liberian children after 14 years of civil<br />

war. Family of Hope was founded by Jacob<br />

Karngar, Resident Assistant at Langton<br />

Place. Karngar, a native Liberian and former<br />

education administrator, was forced to<br />

flee his country during the war. Now a U.S.<br />

citizen, Karngar is dedicated to the recovery<br />

of his homeland’s<br />

next generation.<br />

“Liberia’s children were<br />

traumatized by the war,<br />

and almost none had<br />

ever been to school,” he<br />

said. “Without help from<br />

outside Liberia, most<br />

of them never would<br />

be educated.” Karngar<br />

invited the Langton Place community to<br />

share his vision through the school supplies<br />

service project held in summer 2010. “Jacob is<br />

an inspiration to us,” said Cal Cooper, former<br />

chaplain. “The response by residents and staff<br />

was remarkable, and the project allowed us<br />

to reach halfway around the globe to help<br />

people in need.”<br />

History Tucked Away<br />

A family’s discovery reveals a legacy of dedicated service<br />

In the days after Ruth Omundson died in July<br />

2010, her son, Bob, was finishing the bittersweet<br />

task of going through her personal belongings.<br />

It’s a grown child’s rite of passage brimming with<br />

emotions and memories.<br />

<br />

ruth omundson on her<br />

90th birthday in 2008<br />

Among the blouses, shoes, combs and<br />

bills, bob discovered a cache that opened<br />

like a treasure. Random items sharing<br />

one common thread - they were all from<br />

Ruth’s years as an employee, volunteer<br />

and resident of <strong>Presbyterian</strong> <strong>Homes</strong><br />

& <strong>Services</strong>. Some of the items carried<br />

bob back to his childhood or reminded<br />

him of events in Ruth’s life. Yet others<br />

pulled back the curtain on his mother’s<br />

character, revealing her impact on the<br />

people she served in ways he had not fully<br />

appreciated during her life. The items,<br />

along with the memories of Ruth’s family,<br />

tell her story.<br />

Four badges bearing Ruth’s name<br />

document her employment history and<br />

positions at the <strong>Presbyterian</strong> Home. She<br />

first came to work in 1957 as a kitchen<br />

assistant to the cook, her sister, Mae<br />

unbaugh when “the Home” had 26<br />

residents. Ruth soon became supervisor<br />

of the kitchen, dining room, laundry and<br />

housekeeping. She was promoted to<br />

Food <strong>Services</strong> Director, but her service<br />

was not limited to the kitchen. “Mom<br />

brought residents’ laundry home,” bob<br />

remembered. “Some didn’t like how their<br />

things would get mixed up. So she’d bring<br />

it home and wash it for them.”<br />

After her husband retired in 1969, Ruth<br />

worked as volunteer coordinator and<br />

administrative assistant. She retired in<br />

1972 but volunteered for many years after.<br />

Her daughter-in law, Michelle, looked back<br />

knowing that “Ruth saw people with needs<br />

that were not being met in other ways and<br />

she’d quietly take care of them.”<br />

Ruth’s stenography notebook provides a<br />

behind-the-scenes chronicle of important<br />

occasions at the Home. The annual spring<br />

Open House events, the 1966 dedication<br />

of Putnam Chapel, the groundbreaking<br />

in 1971 of the newton Wing are recorded<br />

in detail including menus, flowers and<br />

volunteer assignments. Ruth’s<br />

handwritten notes read like a “Who’s<br />

Who” of the Home’s history. Mses. West,<br />

breidenbach, Hagstrom, and Kennedy,<br />

wives of the first leaders were among<br />

those she captured to appear at her tea<br />

table and in her notebook.<br />

Ruth received and stashed away a<br />

collection of cards, letters and poems<br />

filled with words of appreciation from<br />

residents, staff and volunteers. none is<br />

6<br />

SPRInG <strong>2011</strong>


more telling than a<br />

1962 letter from Arthur<br />

L. breidenbach, Superintendent of the<br />

Home from 1955-1965. His handwritten<br />

words assured Ruth that her position<br />

remained for her while she recovered<br />

from pneumonia. Ruth’s daughter, Jeannie<br />

Walker, recalled how she came home<br />

from school to find <strong>Presbyterian</strong> Home’s<br />

residents sitting at the kitchen table. Ruth<br />

would bring 5 residents home at a time<br />

for coffee and cookies until everyone had<br />

a turn visiting. “Mom was dedicated to all<br />

her relationships with everyone, whether<br />

family, friends or co-workers,” said Jeannie,<br />

“She made everyone feel important.”<br />

A photo from the early 1970’s shows Ruth<br />

standing with her neighbors at the door of<br />

The Mayfield gift shop she helped start. It<br />

wasn’t her first. Decades before, she was<br />

inspired by residents asking her to shop<br />

for small items for them. She set up in a<br />

grocery cart filled with cards, snacks and<br />

sundries, graduated to a flower cart and<br />

eventually helped open the doors of the<br />

shop that over time became Carriage Gifts,<br />

still operating in the village Square of<br />

<strong>Presbyterian</strong> <strong>Homes</strong> of Arden Hills. Today,<br />

nearly every PHS community has a gift<br />

shop or convenience store.<br />

Ruth and her husband, Larry, were among<br />

the first to live at The Mayfield in Little<br />

Canada, Mn, which opened in 1991. They<br />

reserved a senior apartment before the<br />

groundbreaking and watched from an<br />

apartment across the street as the<br />

building went up. It was their idea to add<br />

the gift shop, guestroom, and billiard room<br />

to the community.<br />

Larry died in 2001 and Ruth moved near<br />

her family in Kansas where she shared<br />

a home with her grandson, Greg, who<br />

felt she was a good influence on his son,<br />

Robbie. “Her values have set the tone for<br />

our entire family,” said Greg. She taught us<br />

to think of others first.”<br />

In 2009, Ruth returned to Minnesota,<br />

living at EagleCrest in Roseville. “She and<br />

my grandpa were such believers in PHS,”<br />

said Greg, “It always felt like home to<br />

Grandma and led to her decision.” When<br />

her health was failing, she moved to<br />

<strong>Presbyterian</strong> <strong>Homes</strong> of Roseville where<br />

she passed away on July 24, 2010. Coming<br />

full circle, her memorial service was held at<br />

Putnam Memorial Chapel on the campus<br />

of <strong>Presbyterian</strong> <strong>Homes</strong> of Arden Hills.<br />

A deceased parent’s belongings divulge<br />

what they valued and cared about<br />

enough to preserve. “We didn’t know<br />

these things existed until after her death,”<br />

bob remarked. “She hid from us how<br />

important she really was.” The artifacts<br />

of Ruth’s life with PHS hold no intrinsic<br />

value, but they reveal her mind for details<br />

and heart for people. Without fame or<br />

fanfare she was among the early servants<br />

of <strong>Presbyterian</strong> <strong>Homes</strong> who set the<br />

benchmarks and paved the way to enrich<br />

the lives of older adults through service<br />

that reflects the love of God.<br />

A conversation with two PHS Board Members<br />

“PHs has proven itself able to<br />

adapt well and be creative”<br />

~allen olson<br />

SPRInG <strong>2011</strong><br />

Members of the <strong>Presbyterian</strong><br />

<strong>Homes</strong> & <strong>Services</strong> board of<br />

Directors are volunteers who<br />

bring their faith, experience and<br />

leadership to the helm of PHS.<br />

Harold Wiens, board vice chair, is<br />

a retired engineer and international<br />

executive with 3M, and member<br />

of Eaglebrook Church. Allen Olson<br />

is the former governor of north<br />

Dakota, retired from public and<br />

private law practice, and member<br />

of Christ <strong>Presbyterian</strong> Church. They<br />

recently talked with <strong>Perspectives</strong><br />

about how they understand their<br />

service, the board’s work and the<br />

mission of PHS.<br />

<strong>Perspectives</strong> (P): When and why did you join<br />

the PHS Board?<br />

Harold Wiens (HW): I served with Dan<br />

Lindh on the bethel university board, and<br />

respect him and his work. He asked me to<br />

consider being on the PHS board in 2006.<br />

I have a passion for the care of older adults.<br />

Jesus taught that faith works itself out in<br />

caring for people, specifically for widows<br />

and orphans, so for me, it just fits.<br />

allen olson (ao): bob Dunbar (board<br />

Chair) and I were fraternity brothers<br />

at the university of north Dakota. bob<br />

said, “I want you to have lunch with<br />

someone named Dan Lindh because I’m<br />

recommending that you be elected to<br />

the board.” So, we had lunch and I was<br />

elected 6 years ago. I had just come to<br />

know SummerWood of Chanhassen where<br />

my wife’s parents lived, and saw how PHS<br />

impacted the surrounding community and<br />

influenced standards of senior care. I can’t<br />

imagine refusing the invitation.<br />

P: Have you both had family living<br />

in PHS Communities?<br />

ao: My in-laws, George and Lois<br />

benner, came from South Dakota to a<br />

senior apartment at SummerWood of<br />

Chanhassen, and then moved to assisted<br />

living until the end of their lives. They were<br />

in their 90’s and needed to be near us. It<br />

was a perfect situation for them.<br />

HW: My mother, Marie Wiens, moved to<br />

assisted living at Timber Hills in January<br />

2010. She celebrated her 100th birthday<br />

in September. Last December, she moved<br />

to boutwells Landing to receive a different<br />

level of care. The people at Timber Hills<br />

and boutwells did a wonderful job. (note:<br />

Marie Wiens passed away in January <strong>2011</strong>.)


“We (the board) are the keepers of the<br />

mission, vision and values of PHs”<br />

~Harold Wiens.<br />

P: What is the board’s role in the mission<br />

of PHS?<br />

HW: We are the keepers of the mission,<br />

vision and values of PHS—knowing who<br />

we are, what are our values, who we serve,<br />

what we have to offer, and where we’re<br />

going—then bringing the leadership to<br />

get there.<br />

ao: Our role is to guide, make policy<br />

and not to interfere unreasonably in<br />

operations. We have a special<br />

responsibility. Younger folks have<br />

knowledge and there’s a great deal of<br />

knowledge in the senior management<br />

and staff, but as we get older I think we<br />

give up particular knowledge for wisdom.<br />

Looking at the PHS board and seeing<br />

mature people, it is the perfect place to<br />

apply the wisdom that comes with age.<br />

HW: I agree with Allen about wisdom<br />

and knowledge.<br />

ao: How old are you Harold?<br />

HW: I’m 64.<br />

ao: You’re just a puppy. I’m 72.<br />

HW: When I grow up I want to be just<br />

like you! I appreciate the board members<br />

and staff of PHS. These are people who<br />

are willing to give and take and express<br />

and act. Everyone on the board has been<br />

good at what they do and bring remarkably<br />

different backgrounds to the table.<br />

P: Can you elaborate on the board’s special<br />

responsibility?<br />

ao: It is first to Jesus Christ. We establish<br />

the Christian principles by which we<br />

operate. We also have to do business<br />

successfully or else all that is good about<br />

PHS goes out the door. We have to honor<br />

the Lord and get the job done.<br />

“ Change will be bigger and faster,<br />

with greater challenges.”<br />

HW: It’s essential for the board to move<br />

up and out of day-to-day operations and<br />

look beyond the horizon. We can’t be<br />

hanging around down “low” and expect<br />

to see what’s over the horizon. When<br />

leadership constantly elevates the level of<br />

what they are doing, life is more exciting<br />

and rewarding for the staff who take on<br />

what the leaders used to do. The whole<br />

organization is lifted up.<br />

ao: We couldn’t ask for a better<br />

management leader than Dan Lindh. The<br />

board supports him as he guides the senior<br />

management team. We help him apply his<br />

time and talents wisely because his time<br />

is valuable and his talents are so effective.<br />

His practice of excellence permeates the<br />

rest of the organization.<br />

P: What is in the 5-year Strategic Plan<br />

that excites you and will advance the<br />

mission of PHS?<br />

HW: This is an excellent plan and indicates<br />

to me that the board is doing its job. It<br />

talks about realizing the vision in multiple<br />

perspectives 9


allen olson (left) and Harold<br />

Wiens engage in discussion at<br />

the bi-monthly meeting of the<br />

PHs board of Directors.<br />

constituencies that want different things.<br />

<strong>Services</strong> like home care and home-delivered<br />

meals show that we are responding and<br />

redefining how we offer choices.<br />

ao: The plan reflects the 50,000-foot-high<br />

perspective that the board is gaining. The<br />

trend is towards people wanting to stay in<br />

their own homes, not necessarily move to<br />

a senior community. I see PHS adapting<br />

well to this trend, and I think it will be<br />

imperative for the future.<br />

HW: The economic landscape is not going<br />

to be the same 5 years out. The strategic<br />

plan calls for us to be more assertive in<br />

philanthropy. If the board keeps this issue<br />

in front, we’ll come up with novel ideas<br />

that we haven’t yet imagined. I’m excited<br />

and look forward to that.<br />

ao: I also appreciate how important<br />

hospice is to senior care. My wife’s parents<br />

each needed hospice care at the end of<br />

their lives. For me this was personal. The<br />

board recognized hospice as a worthy goal<br />

for PHS and has handed it off to the staff<br />

to execute well.<br />

P: What is the landscape on the far horizon of<br />

senior housing and services and how is PHS<br />

positioned to navigate that landscape?<br />

HW: It’s going to be different, and we’ll<br />

have to be different to serve more seniors<br />

with less money without compromising our<br />

level of excellence.<br />

ao: Creativity will come in recognizing<br />

this reality, and remembering the history<br />

of PHS to always do the best job we can. I<br />

believe that the past is prologue. I have the<br />

highest confidence that PHS has proven<br />

itself able to adapt well and be creative.<br />

It’s the board’s responsibility to foster an<br />

atmosphere of creativity. We have the right<br />

people with the right instincts to keep on<br />

keeping on, and that’s what I’ll do as long<br />

as I’m on the board.<br />

HW: The future of a successful<br />

organization is not to evolutionize, but<br />

to revolutionize. Change will be bigger<br />

and faster, with greater challenges and<br />

fewer resources. It’s important that we<br />

remain engaged with the primary issues<br />

and challenges and look at them as great<br />

opportunities to serve. It starts with the<br />

board and continues on through the CEO<br />

and senior staff. When people get excited<br />

about setting a course when the way is<br />

murky, that’s where great ideas come.<br />

Arden Hills, MN<br />

Plans to redevelop the flagship campus of<br />

PHS are moving forward. Over $6 million<br />

has been raised to help make this project<br />

possible. Construction of Phase 1 will begin<br />

this summer. Resident meetings are being<br />

held this spring to share information about<br />

the new building and relocation plans. In<br />

Phase 1, a portion of the development will<br />

be built to house the current residents.<br />

Once the residents have relocated,<br />

all but the McKnight Care Center will<br />

be demolished and construction will<br />

resume to complete a total of 54 senior<br />

apartments, 72 assisted living apartments<br />

and 36 memory care suites. Furnishings<br />

and other elements of Putnam Chapel will<br />

be included in the new chapel that will<br />

also have architectural gestures respecting<br />

Putnam’s heritage. For more information<br />

about construction, contact Pamela Belz at<br />

Progress is visible at the construction site<br />

of Carondelet Village, a partnership of PHS<br />

and the Sisters of St. Joseph of Carondelet<br />

(CSJ). “It seems like a blessed project,”<br />

said John Mehrkens, Vice President<br />

for Development. Especially because<br />

reservations have met Carondelet Village’s<br />

capacity. First to move in this summer will<br />

be the CSJ sisters currently living at Bethany<br />

Convent. When complete, the community<br />

will provide a full continuum of care,<br />

complemented by Carondelet Circle, an<br />

–Philippians 4:4-6 NIV<br />

What great assurance we have in the words<br />

of promise from the Apostle Paul written to<br />

the faithful of Philippi and to us. Consistent<br />

with Paul’s instructions, we rejoice in the<br />

many blessings of 2010. I’d like to share<br />

highlights of the year.<br />

We expanded our array of home and<br />

community-based services and Creative<br />

Senior Dining, now providing meals in<br />

Minnesota’s Washington, Ramsey, and<br />

Hennepin counties, and beyond. PHS also<br />

received certification as a hospice provider.<br />

Construction began on Carondelet Village,<br />

our partnership project with the Sisters<br />

of St. Joseph of Carondelet located in the<br />

Highland Park neighborhood of St. Paul,<br />

MN. This 259-apartment, continuum of<br />

care community is scheduled to open<br />

later this year. The project includes The<br />

Consortium at Carondelet Village, an<br />

initiative that optimizes access to the care<br />

providers’ network in the community,<br />

reduces institutional rates, reduces rehospitalizations,<br />

and results in keeping<br />

older adults at home longer.<br />

We began renovation of our Lake<br />

Minnetonka Shores campus in <strong>Spring</strong> Park,<br />

MN. The entitlement process and planning<br />

necessary to redevelop the <strong>Presbyterian</strong><br />

<strong>Homes</strong> of Arden Hills campus is complete.<br />

We also received approval to begin<br />

construction on Founders Ridge, a<br />

108-unit mini-continuum located in<br />

Bloomington, MN.<br />

Following Paul’s guidance, we present our<br />

requests to God for wisdom and insight<br />

as we approach an uncertain future. This<br />

uncertainty is due, in part, to the impact<br />

of the economy on the older adults we<br />

serve. We also anticipate funding cuts<br />

to reimbursement as state and federal<br />

governments face economic challenges.<br />

As we look to the future, PHS is focusing<br />

on optimizing service quality and achieving<br />

clinical excellence. In addition to offering<br />

care support for residents living in PHS<br />

senior apartments, we will continue<br />

meeting the needs of more older adults<br />

in their homes through: Creative Senior<br />

Dining; hospice; case management services;<br />

geriatric nurse practitioner and physician<br />

services. PHS will continue to develop new<br />

senior living communities, but on a more<br />

modest scale while maintaining a market<br />

share consistent with other goals.<br />

We will strengthen leadership through<br />

recruitment and development. Fundraising<br />

and philanthropy will get an extra measure<br />

of our attention. These initiatives are<br />

addressed on the next page.<br />

We rejoice in what our Lord has provided<br />

and give thanks for God’s many blessings<br />

while we ask for spiritual wisdom and<br />

guidance. Above all, we seek to honor<br />

Christ by fulfilling our ministry to older<br />

adults and serving them effectively.<br />

HOMES & SERVICES


We are blessed with great leaders<br />

throughout PHS. Our founders recognized<br />

the critical importance of leadership as<br />

reinforced by biblical principles upon which<br />

our ministry was based. Leadership is the<br />

most important factor in our ability to<br />

achieve results, fulfill our mission, maintain<br />

Christian culture, and grow our organization.<br />

Talent identification and leadership<br />

development are core to our mission.<br />

One of our strategic priorities for <strong>2011</strong> is<br />

leadership development. Our goal is to<br />

continue to recruit leaders who have high<br />

capacity, exceptional character, and serve<br />

out of a Christian calling. Once those<br />

leaders are in place, we provide resources<br />

to help them develop their full potential.<br />

In addition to the effective development<br />

systems already in place, we plan to expand<br />

under the banner of “Leadership Institute.”<br />

The Institute includes robust assessment<br />

processes, corresponding development<br />

plans aligned with performance<br />

evaluations, and training and development<br />

opportunities. The measure of our success<br />

includes effectiveness of new leaders,<br />

number of leaders pursuing development<br />

plans and the number of leadership<br />

positions filled from within.<br />

Serving older adults is a privilege best<br />

done under competent and value-based<br />

leadership. Scripture affirms that “we<br />

have different gifts...if it is to lead, do it<br />

diligently.” (Romans 12:6, 7 NIV) By the<br />

grace of God and for the benefit of our<br />

residents and clients, we will do all we can<br />

to lead diligently.<br />

Effectiveness<br />

2010 was a year of transition, growth<br />

and change for the <strong>Presbyterian</strong> <strong>Homes</strong><br />

Foundation. Transition occurred when I<br />

assumed a leadership role in the Foundation<br />

in late 2010. Growth was welcome after a<br />

nearly 11% decline nationally in philanthropy<br />

during the great recession. Finally, change<br />

happened because the downturn challenged<br />

the Foundation to rethink our old ways of<br />

doing business. New ideas are often an<br />

unexpected outcome of tough times. “A<br />

friend loves at all times, and a brother is born<br />

for a time of adversity”. (Proverbs 17:17 NIV)<br />

The Foundation enters <strong>2011</strong> building on its<br />

historical strength while emphasizing new<br />

opportunities:<br />

We will emphasize fund raising for capital<br />

projects. Community members and<br />

foundations have been generous<br />

in supporting our service expansion.<br />

Current campaigns for Carondelet Village<br />

and Arden Hills build on the legacy of<br />

successful capital campaigns.<br />

We will promote planned giving. Our<br />

residents, families and community<br />

members have been generous to include<br />

<strong>Presbyterian</strong> <strong>Homes</strong> in their estate plans.<br />

When we compare our results to the best<br />

in our field nationally, we can do better.<br />

We will expand the types of donors<br />

interested in PHS by emphasizing our<br />

leading edge programs. Creative Senior<br />

Dining and The Consortium at Carondelet<br />

Village are attracting national attention<br />

allowing us to tell our story to regional and<br />

national foundations looking for change in<br />

health care and services for older adults.<br />

The Foundation is important to the future<br />

of PHS. As government budgets face<br />

greater pressure and household finances<br />

are stretched, philanthropy is essential to<br />

our ability to serve older adults, reflecting<br />

the love of God.<br />

Endowment<br />

Endowment funds are an important source of stability and strength,<br />

and will continue to grow in importance as the older adult population increases.<br />

Gifts placed in endowment funds are held in trust and never spent. They are invested under the advisement<br />

of the Finance Committee of our board of Directors. The earnings from Endowment provide a permanent source<br />

of revenue for mission benevolence, mission development, and quality of life enhancements.<br />

To ensure its continued growth, <strong>Presbyterian</strong> <strong>Homes</strong> invests in Endowment, 10% of all unrestricted gifts greater<br />

than $10,000 and less than $200,000 and 100% of all unrestricted gifts greater than $200,000.<br />

In addition, we always honor donors’ wishes to have their gifts restricted for Endowment.<br />

Endowment provides long range stability, solid programs, and the flexibility for innovation while allowing PHS to<br />

maintain its quality of care and services even during economic downturns. It allows PHS to practice philanthropy<br />

and fulfill the mission in every program area.<br />

Serving the Greater Good<br />

Giving back, changing lives and meeting needs<br />

of individuals and communities are at the heart<br />

of <strong>Presbyterian</strong> <strong>Homes</strong> & <strong>Services</strong>. The 2010<br />

Social Accountability Report describes the<br />

many activities and programs supported by<br />

the generosity of our donors, and the service<br />

of our residents, staff and volunteers. All are<br />

our gifts to the public community and do<br />

not financially benefit our organization. On<br />

the following pages are testimonies to how<br />

PHS contributes to the larger community. As<br />

a non-profit organization we are grateful for<br />

the people who give from the heart to enrich<br />

the lives of older adults, their families and the<br />

greater communities in which they live.<br />

Our employees care for older adults with more than their hands<br />

and hearts. Their generosity of spirit often extends to financial<br />

contributions, which help supplement funding for numerous<br />

Americans are living longer in an economy that offers diminishing<br />

returns on investments, increasing health care expenses and<br />

dwindling government resources. Many older adults reach a point<br />

where their financial needs exceed their retirement plans. Our<br />

intention is to help them stay within their home communities.<br />

When other forms of financial assistance have been exhausted,<br />

PHS turns to its Mission benevolence Fund. In many cases, the<br />

funds help bridge the gap between income and expenses.<br />

Through the leadership of resident councils and motivated<br />

individuals, our older adults coordinate with staff and volunteers<br />

to share their talents and caring beyond their own walls. At nearly<br />

every PHS location, residents run fund-raisers, and collect food and<br />

household supplies for food banks. Many others make clothing and<br />

quilts, such as the Stonecrest Quilts of valor for wounded veterans.<br />

babies. As just one example among dozens more, 20 residents at<br />

SummerWood of Chanhassen. For over five<br />

years they’ve made blankets, prayer shawls,<br />

hats, mittens, booties and scarves. “I like<br />

to knit. It’s my favorite hobby,” said betty.<br />

She agrees with fellow knitter Lorraine who<br />

believes that it’s an honor to donate their<br />

work to those in need. “I’m praying for<br />

them while I’m knitting,” said betty.<br />

They’ve sent the products of their artistry<br />

to Children’s Hospital, St. Joseph’s Home<br />

for Children and a nearby non-profit, The<br />

PROP Shop, which sells the items at deeply<br />

discounted prices or passes them on free to<br />

families in need. The knitters also sell items<br />

and use the earnings to buy coats and<br />

boots to accompany their knitting.<br />

Kay Jacome, a SummerWood resident until<br />

her passing late in 2010, organized the<br />

group. “She’s sadly missed,” said Lorraine.<br />

betty remembers that Kay always brought<br />

treats and jokes to the knitters. Kay’s<br />

daughter, Judy Peters, who usually went to<br />

buy the coats and boots, made a donation<br />

as a memorial for her mother. The group<br />

decided to buy a Christmas tree that will go<br />

up every fall to collect clothing and other<br />

goods to send to PROP.<br />

“Sometimes I can’t believe my eyes that we<br />

knitted so much,” said betty. now, that’s<br />

how she, Lorraine and the other knitters<br />

keep Kay’s legacy going.<br />

Service<br />

Performing our duties and responsibilities<br />

with extraordinary diligence. Doing our best.<br />

“Their trust is a gift.” That’s how Joan<br />

Schroeder, Coordinator of Kids & Teens in<br />

Grief support group, describes interaction<br />

with children mourning the death of a<br />

loved one, often a parent. She coordinates<br />

facilitators who meet with the children<br />

and their parents in separate groups once<br />

a week during the six-week program at<br />

boutwells Landing.<br />

Four to 15 children, ages 5 to 18, meet in<br />

this “safe, confidential environment,” said<br />

Connie, a volunteer facilitator. Initially they<br />

may mask their feelings, often not wanting<br />

to add to a surviving parent’s difficulties.<br />

When they realize they’re not alone, they<br />

can relate to others expressing the same<br />

feelings they have. They hear stories of<br />

grief, and need to tell their stories over and<br />

over again to begin healing. “At first, some<br />

kids want to leave, but by the end they’re<br />

hugging,” said Joan.<br />

Chaplain bob Furniss received thanks from<br />

the mother of a boy who attended the<br />

group three years after his father died. Her<br />

son hadn’t talked about his feelings and<br />

was hesitant to enter the group. but he<br />

shared in-group and later told his mother<br />

much that he had been withholding. She<br />

said that joining the group was the best<br />

decision “since my husband passed away.”<br />

Since 2004, boutwells Landing has been<br />

home to the meetings, which are offered in<br />

collaboration with Lakeview Hospital and<br />

the St. Croix Chaplaincy Association.<br />

We support many local service groups by offering meeting space<br />

at no charge. Area churches use community space at significant<br />

discounts. by substantially lowering their overhead, we allow them<br />

to focus resources more effectively on their missions.<br />

Through educational outreach forums, we help churches and<br />

service organizations better serve older adults. In the past fiscal<br />

year, we offered approximately 400 hours of training, donated class<br />

materials, 1,000 hours of staff time and meeting space.<br />

How could we thrive without the time and talents of staff, older<br />

community? They come together to support community initiatives,<br />

campus-based projects and the individual needs of older adults.<br />

From the mundane – paperwork, cleaning or transportation – to<br />

the inspiring – kindly companionship or prayer – their efforts are<br />

a tangible blessing. We have documented 232,085 volunteer hours<br />

across our communities this fiscal year; many more hours<br />

go undocumented.<br />

to better understanding and potentially curing this disease, which<br />

affects many older adults living in PHS communities and more<br />

than 5 million Americans. PHS residents and staff walked and<br />

staffed the Metro-area event in September 2010. Campus walks<br />

Ellen, a social worker at Central Towers in downtown St. Paul, has<br />

established the means to feed the hunger and hearts of the 100<br />

older adults living there. Her pantry offers donated food, linens,<br />

household goods and many other basics not covered by their<br />

creative senior DininG – $30,000<br />

Health, independence and choice are the hallmarks of Creative<br />

Senior Dining (CSD), which has delivered great tasting, nutritionally<br />

satisfying meals to older adults in four Minnesota counties since<br />

2008. CSD offers 80 entrees and weekly or daily check-ins by staff<br />

and volunteers who deliver meals and provide social interaction. In<br />

fiscal year 2010, CSD donated 4,780 meals to low-income adults.<br />

The Metro Area Agency on Aging has contracted CSD to provide<br />

meals to low-income older adults in Ramsey and Washington<br />

Counties. Title III of the Older Americans Act provides funding.<br />

Each month, CSD serves 60,000 meals to 4,000 older adults at<br />

38 congregate dining sites and in nearly 1,000 households.<br />

“somebody deserves a pat on the back<br />

for coming up with this idea.”<br />

~rose c.<br />

Rose appreciates that she can choose<br />

what to eat when she wants to eat it. To<br />

her, choice is one of the benefits of having<br />

meals delivered by PHS Creative Senior<br />

Dining (CSD). “It’s an extraordinary menu,”<br />

she said, “that’s grown considerably”<br />

since she started ordering meals over<br />

two years ago. She selects from dozens<br />

of options and receives her meals every<br />

Tuesday morning. “I feel free having to wait<br />

for delivery only one day a week.” Rose<br />

describes the portions as “just about right”<br />

and says that heating the frozen entrees<br />

in the microwave is simple. The woman<br />

who delivers is conscientious and kind, said<br />

Rose. “She offers to help and asks how I’m<br />

feeling.” A previous deliverer even left his<br />

phone number and told Rose: “If something<br />

isn’t right let me know and I’ll correct it.”<br />

Rose is one of nearly 4,000 older adults<br />

receiving meals in four Minnesota counties.<br />

And CSD delivers more than just meals.<br />

Often, conversation and care are as<br />

nourishing as the food. Doug is just one<br />

among dozens of volunteers who help<br />

where needed. Once each week he visits<br />

a vision-impaired couple for lunch. He<br />

sets the table, heats the meals and stays<br />

for up to an hour. They discuss their life<br />

history and health as Doug gets to know<br />

them better. When asked if he’d keep<br />

volunteering, Doug answered, “Definitely.”<br />

“everyone knows everyone’s names”<br />

~Linsey t.<br />

“We love hearing their voices.”<br />

Those sounds come from toddlers and<br />

preschoolers visiting their grand-friends,<br />

whom they come to know and cherish.<br />

“The residents light up when they see the<br />

children,” said Sandi Hofer, Director of the<br />

northwestern College Child Development<br />

Center. “And the kids love them.”<br />

About 40 children spend weekdays in the<br />

center at EagleCrest Commons in Roseville.<br />

In 1994, northwestern and PHS began this<br />

partnership, which benefits children, their<br />

grand-friends and the college’s students.<br />

Many children develop a strong<br />

relationship with a grand-friend, said Sonja<br />

Zapchenk, who is liaison with EagleCrest<br />

activities staff. “The children learn respect<br />

and understand that grand-friends are<br />

children of God, just like them,” said<br />

Sonja. “being part of an intergenerational<br />

community is atypical for children in a<br />

childcare center,” said Sandi. Parents have<br />

told her how glad they are when their<br />

children carry that respect home.<br />

Education majors from northwestern<br />

College observe the children’s interactions<br />

with older adults and each year one, like<br />

Linsey, is a student teacher for several<br />

weeks. Linsey agrees that children can<br />

learn respect at an early age, especially<br />

good practices like shaking hands and<br />

looking someone in the eye. “After two<br />

weeks here, everyone knows everyone’s<br />

names,” she said. “It’s a privilege to be part<br />

of this community.”<br />

Our experience supports 2010 research by ELJAY, LLC indicating<br />

that MA reimbursements in Minnesota fell short of expenses by<br />

$24.75 per day, per person. We cover that shortfall to maintain<br />

uninterrupted care.<br />

aFForDabLe cHiLD care ProGrams – $156,000<br />

The interaction of children with grandparents or greatgrandparents<br />

creates an image of joy for many of us. Hundreds<br />

of children have shared that happiness through intergenerational<br />

activities within five PHS communities. Koala bear Care, located<br />

within Lake Minnetonka Shores in <strong>Spring</strong> Park, Mn, provides care<br />

for many PHS employees as well as families in the surrounding<br />

community. The child care program at EagleCrest in Roseville,<br />

Mn offers the joy of intergenerational experience as well as<br />

affordable child care for our employees and those of our partner,<br />

cHaPLaincy ProGram – $1,256,977<br />

Regardless of their faith or denomination, many older adults<br />

seek deeply personal, spiritual nurturing as an essential part of a<br />

fulfilling life. Our chaplains are available to counsel and support<br />

staff, older adults and their families at every PHS community.<br />

Chaplains trained in theology and counseling are gifted to<br />

offer compassion, insight, comfort, inspiration and spiritual<br />

guidance. Likewise, they provide those living and serving in PHS<br />

communities the opportunity to reach out to others in faith and<br />

compassion. Through individual and communal activities they<br />

tend to the hearts of our communities.<br />

oPeration cHristmas cHiLD – $14,000<br />

The PHS community has reached beyond the upper Midwest<br />

through Operation Christmas Child, which delivers to children in<br />

extreme poverty the joy of a Christmas shoebox filled with small<br />

gifts. In the past fiscal year, more than 400 older adults, their<br />

families, our employees and community friends donated enough<br />

gifts to fill more than 1600 shoeboxes. They also volunteered to<br />

assemble and process the boxes for shipping.<br />

“ Pray for my children, that they<br />

are safe, healthy and being loved<br />

the way I would love them.”<br />

“ Pray that I may learn<br />

how to forgive myself.”<br />

“someone is praying...God listens.”<br />

~Lu P.<br />

“ Pray that every aspect of my<br />

life will bring Him glory.”<br />

These and similar requests reach the<br />

hands and hearts of a dedicated group of<br />

women who meet biweekly with Chaplain<br />

Gene Sipprell for the Prayers for Prisoners<br />

outreach at beacon Hill in Minnetonka,<br />

Mn. The group receives dozens of prayer<br />

requests from women at the Minnesota<br />

Correctional Facility in Shakopee, Mn.<br />

“We believe that God is using our time<br />

to enhance the spiritual well-being of the<br />

inmates,” Chaplain Gene said. “We pray<br />

that they come into faith or that their<br />

existing faith be strengthened.” Though no<br />

one in the group meets any inmates, the<br />

incarcerated women know that someone<br />

is praying for them. Chaplain Gene has<br />

heard from the prison chaplain that “more<br />

and more women are partaking in worship<br />

services and bible study.”<br />

Lu, a member of the prayer group, sees<br />

faces when she prays. She retired over 20<br />

years ago after working as a correctional<br />

counselor at the prison. “I pray now and<br />

remember those I once worked with,” she<br />

said. “We can alleviate their worries if they<br />

know someone is praying for them,” said<br />

Lu. “God listens.”<br />

“Liberty will reach beyond <strong>Presbyterian</strong> <strong>Homes</strong>.”<br />

~Loretta anderson<br />

Loretta Anderson, Director of Continuing<br />

Education and Customized Training at<br />

Minneapolis Community and Technical<br />

College (MCTC), sees applications of<br />

Liberty’s principles to the college’s health<br />

curriculum and their eventual impact on the<br />

long-care care of older adults throughout<br />

Minnesota. Loretta has been involved in<br />

the development of the Liberty curriculum<br />

as manager of a $400,000 state grant to<br />

the college in partnership with PHS.<br />

The purpose of Liberty is “to give<br />

personalized attention to the well-being<br />

of each resident, while enhancing their<br />

independence and dignity.” To that<br />

end, Liberty offers 10 courses for PHS<br />

resident assistants to become Liberty<br />

household specialists. The creation of small<br />

households within care centers is intrinsic<br />

to the Liberty concept.<br />

Liberty courses, taught at several PHS sites,<br />

focus on situations staff encounter working<br />

in a PHS care center. nutrition, family<br />

dynamics, nurturing the spirit, memory<br />

care and falls prevention are some of the<br />

topics intended to enhance residents’ lives.<br />

Loretta believes that many concepts<br />

developed at PHS can eventually be<br />

shared with other nursing care providers<br />

throughout the state. While observing<br />

classes, Loretta says she can see the<br />

“transformation of employees as they<br />

understand they can incorporate this<br />

training into each day.” She sees them gain<br />

confidence in their abilities. “When Liberty<br />

takes hold you can feel it,” she said.<br />

Exploring and creating new approaches to<br />

improving the quality of life for older adults.<br />

emPira FaLL Prevention – $73,000<br />

Injuries caused by falls are a prime culprit for diminishing<br />

quality of life and increasing medical care costs. In 2001, PHS<br />

and its partners formed Empira, which trains staff in methods to<br />

prevent falls. Empira measures its effectiveness against national<br />

benchmarks and shares the outcomes. In 2008, the Minnesota<br />

Department of Human <strong>Services</strong> awarded Empira a three-year<br />

grant to create an evidence-based fall prevention program. PHS<br />

augments that grant annually.<br />

eDUcation – $34,571<br />

We support educational advancement for our staff to enhance<br />

their knowledge and skills, with the goal of providing the best care<br />

to older adults. The Educational Reimbursement Program funds<br />

work-related credits toward an associate, bachelor or graduate<br />

degree at an accredited institution. The nursing Scholarship<br />

Program offers financial assistance to employees who seek a<br />

nursing license. PHS reaches beyond our communities to share<br />

knowledge with our peers, nurturing a culture of cooperation that<br />

improves care for older adults wherever they live.<br />

Liberty, PersonaLLy DesiGneD LivinG - $103,000<br />

Liberty, Personally Designed Living, is the person-centered<br />

model of care for all <strong>Presbyterian</strong> <strong>Homes</strong> care centers and<br />

many of its assisted living communities. Residents declare their<br />

preferences for sleep and wake times, meal choices, and activities<br />

that make them smile. Liberty training programs for resident<br />

trainers, materials, classroom space and administrative support.<br />
