Respect for age is central to the Bible's greatest
teaching. Concern for aging persons is found in the most important
episodes on which Methodist Village & Nursing Home has built
its ministry. In accord with Christian teaching and in the tradition
of Methodism, Methodist Village & Nursing Home, Inc. recognizes
the contribution that people of age have made to family and community.
It holds in high esteem the wisdom and experience they bring to
the present and does not forsake them in the time of old age.
In this spirit of ministry, Methodist Village
& Nursing Home, Inc., pledges:
1. To lead the way in providing special
services for the elderly on a non-profit and, when possible, charitable
basis;
2. To pay special attention to the need for well designed and
appropriate housing, quality long-term care, and a variety of
services which enable many older adults to stay independent as
long as possible;
3. To value excellence in its ministry;
4. To operate with compassion and concern for the beneficiaries
of its services;
5. To achieve and maintain a staff which exemplifies this commitment
to excellence and compassion;
6. To work cooperatively with national, state and local organizations
-religious, public and private- to accomplish its mission;
7. To adhere to sound fiscal management for the safety of all
those who entrust their lives and some of their financial resources
to its care; and
8. To improve and enhance the quality of life for older adults
in Arkansas.
