F990_P06_S0B_L15
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15
The President/CEO of Valley Memorial Homes' (a related party) compensation is determined as follows: The compensation committee reviews the ND Long Term Care Association's state compensation survey each year to assess how Valley Memorial Homes CEO's base salary compares with other facilities of similar size and function. This survey provides the committee with a gauge when it considers changes in base compensation. The committee then reviews the organization's performance and strategic goals to develop an incentive compensation plan, in addition to the base salary. The board budgets a specific amount of executive compensation to be used as incentive compensation; then based upon performance, the CEO may earn up to 100% of the the budgeted incentive compensation. Each year the compensation committee sets and reviews goal performance of the past year and awards incentive compensation, if earned, based upon the agreed formula for performance in certain areas. Compensation for executive management (key employees) include a performance appraisal completed by the President/CEO of Valley Memorial Homes. Employees are eligible for annual inflationary increase to their base salary, the percentage is based upon the approved annual budget. ND Long Term Care Salary Surveys are reviewed and adjustments are made to base salaries if the survey demonstrates an underpayment compared to like sized operations. The President/CEO and executive management sets goals annually. Incentive compensation is awarded, if earned, based upon the agreed formula for performance in certain areas.
