Londonderry Village (LVBH)

Nursing care- in 2023, skilled nursing care had an average census of 66 beds occupied, with 34% of these residents receiving subsidized care. In 2023 all four of our original green houses completed extensive renovations. Two of these houses remained unoccupied due to lack of staff availability. We are working to rebuild our staffing numbers to the pre pandemic levels. We had a few, sporadic covid-19 cases in 2023. The nursing census continues to be intentionally reduced, with the goal to move 20 elders into the unoccupied green houses by year end 2024. Lebanon Valley Brethren Home maintained its cms 5 star rating throughout 2023 and our annual department of health survey resulted in no deficiencies. Personal care- in 2023, personal care had an average census of 37 residents with one resident receiving benevolent assistance to continue receiving services. The plans for a 16-bed memory support unit were finalized in 2023 with construction starting in january 2024. This memory care unit will be located in the former tranquil terrace nursing unit that has been unoccupied for several years. Plans continue for our current personal care unit and a nursing unit, leffler care, to undergo full renovations in two future phases. Census in personal care has remained strong throughout 2023. The department of health and human services survey resulted in one minor deficiency. Independent living - an average 343 of the community's 364 independent living residences were occupied throughout 2023. Benevolent assistance was provided to nine different individuals or co-residents to assist with the monthly maintenance fee for their residence. The demand for our independent living services remains very strong. In 2023 we had over 100 new applicants for our wait list, and we successfully completed nearly 50 "turnarounds" (i.e., units that were vacated, renovated and re-occupied). The campus continues to offer just two basic contracts - a 25% refundable entrance fee agreement, and a no entrance fee (i.e., rental) contract. After years of pre-development efforts, we received the necessary land development approvals to begin construction of phase 1 of our new fox run independent living expansion. The fox run project will include 3 phases of development, and should span several years of new construction. Phase 1 started construction in 2023 but the first move-ins are scheduled in 2024. When finally completed, fox run is anticipated to add about 150 new independent living residents to the current i/l population, which now stands at about 480 residents. In 2023, the very successful annual yard sale, a longstanding fundraiser tradition completely staged by our residents, raised over $100,000 for the benefit of the community's good samaritan fund.
