Good Samaritan Ctr

Good Samaritan Ctr stands as a century-old, not-for-profit organization that started with a focus on disabilities at The Arthur House, which you can still tour today, but over the years it's expanded to care for seniors through things like assisted living, senior apartments, long-term care, and even home-based services, so it's grown a lot and now offers all kinds of support for folks as they get older. The center's partnered with Sanford Health and is part of the Good Samaritan Foundation, with ties to several locations including Arthur and Prairie Villa, and it keeps a strong sense of faith with a campus prayer garden and devotional activities, some even offsite, for people who want spiritual connection along with practical care. You'll find 24-hour staff for emergencies, help with daily needs like bathing, meals, and medication, and even diabetic care including insulin monitoring, with support that moves with you whether you need help transferring from bed to wheelchair, need incontinence care, or just like chatting in an indoor common area set up for residents to visit and relax. There are child daycare services, so sometimes you'll see little ones nearby, and there's a wide range of therapies available, including outpatient therapy and rehabilitation, plus home health and hospice care for people who need it at any stage, so it's more than just a place to live-it's a place where people can get the care that's right for where they are in life. They offer respite care for short-term relief and caregiver support programs for families, handle meals, offer activities to keep people moving and socializing, and even have referral partner programs if there's a need for something they don't cover on site. At its heart, Good Samaritan Ctr works to spread God's love in Christ through kindness and practical help, and it's tried to keep a comfortable, homelike environment while making sure people feel safe and supported in their daily lives.
