With Good Sam Bowl postponed till fall, the unprecedented times we are living and the world of the unknown I have had many phone calls recently just checking in on us, asking how we are and what we need help with.

At this point in time we are becoming more comfortable with our position in PPE. We have had amazing donors help us increase supplies.

Many ask what is next, the short answer is that I do not know. More ask what else can we do, again this unique situation leaves me with no answers.

Early last week the Good Samaritan Foundation helped all locations open a gift fund that helps locations through this pandemic. Donating to this fund allows Bethany and Woodland to accommodate the large costs that have incurred. For an example these funds are used to enhance training, help aid in technology for residents, purchasing of equipment when needed and provide direct assistance to front line caregivers.

To Donate to ou Emerging Threats Fund please visit:

Be sure to choose Woodland or Bethany as all funds will remain local.

For further assistance and questions please feel free to reach out @ 218-825-2505

To ensure the Good Samaritan Society has the resources necessary to swiftly detect, prevent, treat and eradicate health care threats, like the COVID-19 outbreak, as they emerge, the Good Samaritan Foundation has launched an Emerging Threats Fund.
