While on the surface, Clay Center Presbyterian Manor is a provider of high-quality, long-term care, at its heart, it’s an organization dedicated to the creation of powerful and enduring relationships. For 50 years, we have been serving Clay County with the kind of stability that gives both residents and their loved ones lasting peace of mind. Being able to serve the community as an independent living, assisted living, or full healthcare community while always making sure we can provide the best care for each individual person is something we pride ourselves on!
The Good Samaritan Program (“Program”) reflects cornerstone principles of the PMMA mission to provide quality senior services guided by Christian values. Started in 1947, it is backed by love, compassion and the generosity of family, friends and neighbors. This commitment ensures that PMMA residents always have a home. The Program is intended to allow eligible residents who have outlived their financial resources through no fault of their own to continue to reside, and receive care and services, in their PMMA community.
The Program provides financial assistance, including assistance with all or a portion of monthly and ancillary fees. The Program may also assist with the payment of certain living expenses. The Program is generally open to resident in all levels of care, although the application requirements and types of assistance may vary. The Program is funded through donations to offset the financial burden of expenses that are not otherwise being met through government assistance for which the resident is eligible. The Program is intended to be the last resource for resident care expenses and may be modified or discontinued at any time.
Funds collected during the Clay Center Gather for Good Match Day will enable us to add to this program.
Mission
To provide quality senior services guided by Christian values.
Profile
Throughout our history, our ability to continue to meet the growing needs of the seniors and families we we serve has depended largely upon the ongoing assistance of our communities, assistance that carries on a legacy of compassion and a commitment to care.
Our promise.
As a faith-based, mission-driven organization that values the spiritual needs of every man or woman who moves to one of our communities, PMMA is committed to providing an environment where both one’s life—and faith—can be nurtured. In addition, we believe that, as a non-profit provider of aging services, we are inherently obligated to provide a level of quality that stems from a mission of service and a history of compassion.
To ensure an atmosphere where all of this is possible, we promise the following:
• To respect and understand that seniors, as citizens and individuals, retain their rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness
• To extend our role in assisting residents with specific needs and desires
• To deliver compassionate services and attention—at all senior living levels
• To serve as a knowledgeable and trusted resource for seniors
• To be an active advocate for seniors and their health and wellness
Who we are.
Sometimes the best way to paint an accurate picture of who you are is to simply describe who you are not. At Presbyterian Manors, we’re not a large, for-profit corporation. Our primary focus isn’t on creating revenue, it’s about creating the very best options for those we serve. And while for-profit facilities are held accountable by a group of owners or shareholders, PMMA is overseen by a board of trustees whose members volunteer their time to ensure that we always remain true to our mission, respond to local needs, plan effectively and manage our financial resources responsibly.
In partnership with the Presbyterian Church, PMMA was born out of a long-standing tradition of service to others and we're proud to say that those same values are reflected in our governance and management today.
