Explanation
ORGANIZATION'S MISSION
FORM 990 - ORGANIZATION'S MISSION
MISSION AND PURPOSE - THE MISSION OF MORNINGSIDE MINISTRIES IS TO "CARE FOR THOSE WHO CARED FOR US." TO ACCOMPLISH THIS MISSION, MORNINGSIDE PROVIDES ELDERLY PERSONS IN SAN ANTONIO AND SURROUNDING COMMUNITIES WITH PERSONAL CARE IN A RESIDENTIAL SETTING, AS WELL AS LIMITED RECREATIONAL AND CAREGIVER SERVICES TO NON-RESIDENTS. MAJOR PROGRAM SERVICES INCLUDE RETIREMENT HOUSING, ASSISTED LIVING SERVICES, MEMORY CARE, SKILLED NURSING CARE, AND REHABILITATION SERVICES. MORNINGSIDE OPERATES THREE FACILITIES IN BEXAR AND KENDALL COUNTIES WHICH ARE HOME TO OVER 800 OLDER ADULTS. HISTORY AND FOUNDERS - MORNINGSIDE WAS ORIGINALLY FOUNDED IN 1959 BY THE SOUTHWEST TEXAS CONFERENCE OF THE UNITED METHODIST CHURCH. DURING THAT SAME YEAR, IT WAS INCORPORATED AS A NONPROFIT ORGANIZATION IN THE STATE OF TEXAS AND RECEIVED ITS FEDERAL IRS 501(C)3 DESIGNATION. VERY SOON THEREAFTER, THE METHODIST CHURCH WAS JOINED BY THE EPISCOPAL DIOCESE OF WEST TEXAS AND THE FIRST PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH OF SAN ANTONIO TO HELP PROVIDE CARE TO THE ELDERLY. AFTER NEARLY 50 YEARS OF SERVICES, MORNINGSIDE'S PRIMARY GOAL REMAINS THE SAME: TO MEET THE INDIVIDUAL SPIRITUAL, EMOTIONAL, PHYSICAL AND INTELLECTUAL NEEDS OF OUR RESIDENTS AND THEIR FAMILIES IN A FAITH-BASED ATMOSPHERE. MORNINGSIDE IS OPEN TO ALL ELDERLY PERSONS REGARDLESS OF RELIGIOUS FAITH. CHARITY CARE FOR THE AGED - AS PART OF ITS MINISTRY, MORNINGSIDE PROVIDES CHARITABLE CARE TO RESIDENTS WHO HAVE OUTLIVED THEIR RESOURCES. THE COVENANT ENDOWMENT FUND WAS SPECIFICALLY ESTABLISHED TO PROVIDE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE TO THOSE RESIDENTS WHO YEARS AFTER MOVING TO MORNINGSIDE FIND THAT THEY CAN NO LONGER PAY FOR THE SERVICES THEY RECEIVE. IN ADDITION, STATE MEDICAID PAYMENTS TO NURSING HOMES ARE SUBSTANTIALLY LOWER THAN THE COST OF THE HIGH-QUALITY NURSING CARE PROVIDED BY MORNINGSIDE. AT ANY ONE TIME, APPROXIMATELY 50% OF MORNINGSIDE'S NURSING BEDS ARE OCCUPIED BY MEDICAID RECIPIENTS. IN 2010, MORNINGSIDE PROVIDED APPROXIMATELY 2.8 MILLION OF CHARITABLE CARE TO MORE THAN 300 SENIORS. INDEPENDENT LIVING - INDEPENDENT LIVING RESIDENTS COME TO MORNINGSIDE WHEN THEY BEGIN TO EXPERIENCE PROBLEMS MAINTAINING AND MANAGING THEIR HOMES, AS WELL AS DRIVING AN AUTOMOBILE ON THEIR OWN. RESIDENTS IN INDEPENDENT LIVING ARE PROVIDED APARTMENT AND COTTAGE-TYPE HOUSING, MEALS IN A RESTAURANT-STYLE DINNING ROOMS, HOUSEKEEPING SERVICES, TRANSPORTATION, AND RECREATIONAL ACTIVITIES. DURING 2010, 450 ELDERLY PERSONS LIVED IN MORNINGSIDE'S INDEPENDENT LIVING FACILITIES. ASSISTED LIVING AND MEMORY CARE - RESIDENTS IN ASSISTED LIVING AND MEMORY CARE REQUIRE PERSONAL ASSISTANCE WITH DAILY LIVING ACTIVITIES BECAUSE OF PHYSICAL DEBILITATION OR MEMORY LOSS. THEY ARE PROVIDED THE SAME SERVICES AS THOSE IN INDEPENDENT LIVING, PLUS ASSISTANCE WITH BATHING, DRESSING, MEALS, LAUNDRY, AND MEDICATION MANAGEMENT. DURING 2010, 200 PERSONS RESIDED IN ASSISTED LIVING AND MEMORY CARE FACILITIES. SKILLED NURSING CARE -RESIDENTS RECEIVE SKILLED AND INTERMEDIATE NURSING CARE, MEALS, DIETITIAN'S SERVICES, AND A WIDE RANGE OF RECREATIONAL ACTIVITIES. IT ALSO INCLUDES A FULL RANGE OF REHABILITATION SERVICES, INCLUDING PHYSICAL, OCCUPATIONAL AND SPEECH THERAPY. SPECIALIZED NURSING AND THERAPEUTIC SERVICES ARE AVAILABLE FOR RESIDENTS LIVING WITH ALZHEIMER'S DISEASE OR OTHER DEMENTIA-RELATED DISEASES. DURING 2010, 900 RESIDENTS ARE PROVIDED FULL-TIME NURSING CARE, INCLUDING REHABILITATION SERVICES AND MEMORY CARE. CHANDLER SENIOR CENTER - FOR OLDER ADULTS STILL LIVING AT HOME, MORNINGSIDE OPERATES THE CHANDLER SENIOR CENTER, A COMMUNITY CENTER THAT FOCUSES ON "HEALTHY AGING." CURRENTLY, THE CHANDLER SENIOR CENTER HAS A MEMBERSHIP OF APPROXIMATELY 50 PERSONS. THE GOAL OF THE COMMUNITY CENTER FOR SENIORS IS TO HELP OLDER PERSONS TO STAY HEALTHY-BOTH PHYSICALLY AND MENTALLY-AND LIVE INDEPENDENTLY FOR AS LONG AS POSSIBLE. OPEN TO ALL PERSONS 55 AND OLDER, COMMUNITY CENTER MEMBERS AND THEIR GUESTS CAN EAT LUNCH ON ANY WEEKDAY, TAKE PART IN EXERCISE AND NUTRITION CLASSES, ATTEND EDUCATIONAL LECTURES, AND JOIN IN RECREATIONAL ACTIVITIES AT THE CENTER. IF NEEDED, MEMBERS CAN RECEIVE SERVICES FROM A LICENSED DIETITIAN OR SOCIAL WORKER AND CONSULT WITH A NURSE OR PHYSICAL THERAPIST. IN ADDITION, MEMBERS CAN ALSO PARTICIPATE IN LOCAL CULTURAL AND NATURE OUTINGS, AS WELL AS JOIN THE TRAVEL CLUB THAT ARRANGES TRIPS THROUGHOUT TEXAS AND THE U. S. MMLEARN.ORG AT MORNINGSIDE MINISTRIES - MMLEARN.ORG IS AN ON-SITE, DISTANCE-LEARNING TRAINING PROGRAM FOR THOSE PROVIDING CARE TO OLDER PERSONS. IT IS OPERATED BY THE ELIZABETH MCGOWN CAREGIVER TRAINING INSTITUTE IN SAN ANTONIO AND THE GEORGIE BRISCOE RESOURCE CENTER FOR CAREGIVERS IN UVALDE, BOTH PROGRAMS OF MORNINGSIDE MINISTRIES. MMLEARN.ORG SERVES FAMILIES PROVIDING CARE FOR AN OLDER ADULT AT HOME, CHURCH MEMBERS MINISTERING TO THE NEEDS OF THE ELDERLY IN THEIR COMMUNITIES, AND CERTIFIED AND LICESENSED HEALTHCARE WORKERS EMPLOYED IN NURSING HOMES AND ASSISTED LIVING FACILITIES, AS WELL AS THOSE INDEPENDENTLY EMPLOYED PROVIDING CARE TO THE AGED. IT USES THE MOST UP-TO-DATE DISTANCE LEARNING TECHNOLOGY TO PROVIDE TRAINING TO CAREGIVERS ATTENDING CLASSES IN PERSON, AS WELL AS TO THOSE VIEWING COURSE INSTRUCTION VIA THE INTERNET AT OTHER LOCATIONS IN SAN ANTONIO AND SURROUNDING COMMUNITIES. DURING 2010, MMLEARN.ORG RECEIVED APPROXIMATELY 15,000 WEBSITE VIEWS.
EXPLANATION ON VOLUNTEERS AND TYPES OF SERVICES OR BENEFITS
FORM 990, PAGE 1, PART I, LINE 6
VOLUNTEERS IN THE ORGANIZATION THE AUXILIARY AT MORNINGSIDE MANOR WAS ALREADY ESTABLISHED WHEN MORNINGSIDE OPENED ITS FIRST FACILITY IN 1961. THE AUXILIARY WAS CREATED TO HELP DEFRAY THE COST OF PROVIDING CARE TO RESIDENTS IN NURSING CARE, PROVIDE PERSONAL ATTENTION TO EACH RESIDENT, AND CREATE VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES TO COMMUNITY MEMBERS WANTING TO WORK WITH THE ELDERLY IN NURSING CARE. TODAY, THERE ARE 85 VOLUNTEERS IN THE AUXILIARY PROVIDING MORE THAN 6,000 VOLUNTEER HOURS PER YEAR. THEY UNDERTAKE A WIDE RANGE OF ACTIVITIES THAT FREE THE NURSING STAFF TO CONCENTRATE ON PATIENT CARE, INCLUDING VISITING WITH RESIDENTS, MAKING ROUNDS WITH "HYDRATION CARTS" TO ENSURE RESIDENTS DRINK PLENTY OF FLUIDS WHICH IS SO CRITICAL TO CONTINUED GOOD HEALTH, AND RUNNING ERRANDS FOR THE RESIDENTS TO NEARBY PHARMACIES, SUPERMARKETS, AND DEPARTMENT STORES. VOLUNTEERS ALSO READ TO RESIDENTS WHO CAN NO LONGER HOLD A BOOK OR WHOSE VISION HAS FAILED. THEY ALSO HELP LEAD BOARD AND OTHER GAMES FOR RESIDENTS AND ORGANIZE MUSICAL ENTERTAINMENT FOR THEM. VOLUNTEERS OPERATE THE "WELCOME WAGON" PRESENTING ALL NEW RESIDENTS WITH A GIFT BAG AND ALSO PREPARE GIFTS FOR RESIDENTS ON THEIR BIRTHDAY, CHRISTMAS OR OTHER SPECIAL OCCASIONS. THE AUXILIARY ALSO OPERATES A GIFT SHOP AT THE MANOR THAT IS OPEN TO ALL RESIDENTS, FAMILY MEMBERS, AND EMPLOYEES. ALL PROFITS OF THE SHOP ARE DONATED BY THE AUXILIARY TO THE MANOR TO BE USED FOR RENOVATION OF THE FACILITIES, PURCHASE OF NEEDED EQUIPMENT AND FURNITURE, AND TO PURCHASE BOOKS, MATERIALS AND SUPPLIES THAT IMPROVE THE QUALITY OF LIFE FOR RESIDENTS. SINCE 1994, THE AUXILIARY HAS DONATED APPROXIMATELY 259,000 IN CASH TO MORNINGSIDE MANOR FROM THE GIFT SHOP PROCEEDS. VOLUNTEERS ARE RECRUITED AT AREA CHURCHES, THROUGH PARENT-TEACHER ASSOCIATIONS, FROM PRESENTATIONS MADE BY A SPEAKERS' BUREAU, AND THROUGH REFERRALS MADE BY VOLUNTEERS, RESIDENTS, FAMILY MEMBERS AND EMPLOYEES. MOST VOLUNTEERS SPEND MANY YEARS VOLUNTEERING AT MORNINGSIDE WITH MANY LEAVING THE AUXILIARY ONLY AFTER RETIRING OR WHEN THEIR OWN HEALTH FAILS. IN ADDITION, HUNDREDS OF OTHER VOLUNTEERS THROUGHOUT THE YEAR PARTICIPATE IN A WIDE VARIETY OF ACTIVITIES AT ALL OF MORNINGSIDE MINISTRIES' THREE CAMPUSES. THESE VOLUNTEERS ARE PART OF AN INFORMAL VOLUNTEER PROGRAM WHICH INCLUDES ONE-TIME, SHORT-TERM AND LONG-TERM VOLUNTEER SERVICE PROJECTS. WHILE MANY VOLUNTEERS COME AS PART OF A CORPORATE VOLUNTEER PROJECT, CHURCH GROUP, SCOUT TROOP, SCHOOL CLASS OR OTHER ORGANIZED EFFORT, OTHER VOLUNTEERS COME ON THEIR OWN WANTING TO HELP MINISTER TO THE NEEDS OF RESIDENTS. VOLUNTEER ACTIVITIES INCLUDE DRIVING RESIDENTS ON ERRANDS OR TO CHURCH, VISITING WITH RESIDENTS, HELPING WITH RECREATION ACTIVITIES, MUSICAL PERFORMANCES, COMPUTER LESSONS AND MANY OTHER ACTIVITIES. THESE VOLUNTEERS WORK UNDER THE DIRECTION OF AN ACTIVITIES COORDINATOR ON EACH CAMPUS.
