“The president and ceo and the director of accounting services performed a detailed review of the form 990. Each member of the board of directors was presented with an electronic copy or paper copy of the form 990 before it is filed with the internal revenue service.”

“Each director, principal officer and member of a committee with governing board delegated powers shall annually sign a statement which affirms such person has received a copy of the conflicts of interest policy, has read and understands the policy, has agreed to comply with the policy, has completed the st. Anne home conflict interest statement, and understands that st. Anne home is charitable and in order to maintain its federal tax exemption it must engage primarily in activities which accomplish one or more of its tax-exempt purposes. To ensure the organization operates in a manner consistent with charitable purposes and does not engage in activities that could jeopardize its tax-exempt status, periodic reviews shall be conducted. The periodic reviews shall, at a minimum, include a review of a summary of all the completed annual conflict of interest statements made by all board members. In connection with any actual or possible conflict of interest, an interest person must disclose the existence of the financial interest and be given the opportunity to disclose all material facts to the directors and members of committees with governing board delegated powers considering the proposed transaction or arrangement. After disclosure of the financial interest and all material facts, and after any discussion with the interested person, he/she shall leave the governing board or committee meeting while the determination of a conflict of interest is discussed and voted upon. The remaining board or committee members shall decide if a conflict of interest exists. An interested person may make a presentation at the governing board or committee meeting, but after the presentation, he/she shall leave the meeting during the discussion of, and the vote on, the transaction or arrangement involving the possible conflict of interest. The chairperson of the governing board or committee shall, if appropriate, appoint a disinterested person or committee to investigate alternatives to the proposed transaction or arrangement. After exercising due diligence, the governing board or committee shall determine whether the organization can obtain with reasonable efforts a more advantageous transaction or arrangement from a person or entity that would not give rise to a conflict of interest. If a more advantageous transaction or arrangement is not reasonably possible under circumstances not producing a conflict of interest, the governing board or committee shall determine by a majority vote of the disinterested directors whether the transaction or arrangement is in the organization's best interest, for its own benefit, and whether it is fair and reasonable. In conformity with the above determination it shall make its decision as to whether to enter into the transaction or arrangement. If the governing board or committee has reasonable cause to believe a member has failed to disclose actual or possible conflicts of interest, it shall inform the member of the basis for such belief and afford the member an opportunity to explain the alleged failure to disclose. If, after hearing the member's response and after making further investigation as warranted by the circumstances, the governing board or committee determines the member has failed to disclose an actual or possible conflict of interest, it shall take appropriate disciplinary and corrective action.”

“In fact, st. Anne home's nursing facility is one of the longest established and most well-respected not-for-profit nursing facility providers in westmoreland county. Residential independent living at st. Anne home offers private and affordable independent living with supportive services in two-bed room residential homes that are within walking distance to our main campus. St. Anne home's three largest program services by expense are: 1) nursing care/rehabilitative services; 2) personal care home services; 3) independent living care, all of which is in the context of a continuing care retirement community. The following narrative details the exempt purpose achievements of these major programs. At st. Anne home, we strive to provide the highest quality of caregiving services in a christian environment and to serve those with limited funds to the best of our ability. The charity care that we have provided during the year ended june 30, 2024, was valued at $3,255,000. (this is from the benevolent care note, page 15 in the audited financial statements = personal care $29,000 plus medical assistance program $3,226,000 equals $3,255,000) this charity care helped 133 nursing facility and 1 villa angela residents to continue to receive care and services from our organization. Our waiting list for both skilled nursing and personal care reflects the fine reputation we have established among the long-term care community and our success in meeting the needs of our residents. In addition to the charitable care and services provided to our residents, st. Anne home is also proud of our religious programs propagating the core values and the charism of the felician sisters of north america which is to imitate blessed mary angela's boundless love of god and to surrender to god's will in compassionate service, total availability, and concern for the salvation of all people. We offer a comprehensive spiritual care program, including a visiting chaplain and sisters who reside on campus and are available at all times. In addition, we have a director of pastoral care that engages with patients and residents to assist with any spiritual needs that they may have. Residents are encouraged to attend daily religious services in our large, well-maintained chapel with a 32-foot cathedral ceiling, where daily approximately 70 residents, family members, and staff are comforted by its spiritual benefits. There are also many other spiritual programs offered including: anointing of the sick, may crowning, memorial services, journey to a new life, and other ecumenical services. Many staff, visitors, patients and resident family members continually comment that the journey to a new life is a wonderfully dignified and respectful way for the person who has passed to depart st. Anne home. This ceremony gives closure to the staff and gives them the opportunity to say one final goodbye to the person that they became so close to while they were caring for them. Additionally, st. Anne home has implemented educational programs for our employees concerning the felician sisters of north america's core values of ministry: respect for human dignity, compassion, solidarity with people in need, transformation, and justice and peace. We feel that these continuing education programs for staff will result in a deeper understanding and appreciation for the mission and values of st. Anne home. When it comes to staffing, st. Anne home makes it a priority to provide high level, clinical training to all employees, in order to advance our exempt purposes. Employee turnover rates continue to remain well below industry benchmarks and have consistently ranked as having one of the lowest turnover rates in westmoreland county. Currently, 88 of our employees have 5 years of services or more, of those 53 employees have 10 years of service or more and of those, 22 employees have 20 years of service or more, 10 have 30 years of service or more, and 3 have 40 years of service or more.
