Good Samaritan Society

The Evangelical Lutheran Good Samaritan Society is the largest not-for-profit provider of senior care and services in the United States. More than 27,000 people of all beliefs and faiths call us home. Locations: Arizona, Arkansas, Colorado, Florida, Hawaii, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Minnesota, Montana, Nebraska, New Mexico, North Dakota, Ohio, Oregon, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Washington, West Virginia and Wisconsin. The Society’s mission is based in love. In fact, love is the motivation behind the care we provide. In recent months, we’ve begun to challenge ourselves to go the extra mile in finding new ways to share Christ’s love with the people around us. We’re highlighting eight profound traits that Jesus showed us. In addition to love, the traits are compassion, acceptance, joy, humility, honesty, courage and perseverance. The Good Samaritan Society Way is the name we have given this emphasis. It’s a new way of talking about sharing God’s love. But it’s an extension of what we’ve always done and how we’ve always loved the people in our care. We’re accepting this challenge to bring these eight traits of Jesus into our daily work and relationships. Connect with us!
