Overview of Good Samaritan Society – St. Vincent

Kirk Greff runs Good Samaritan Society – St. Vincent, a 46-bed nursing home at 1021 N 26th Street in Bismarck, North Dakota. The single-story building has been operating for 42 years. That’s a long run for a 46-bed home, and it shows in how the place is set up: built mostly around long-term care rather than short-stay rehab.

The neighborhood is car-dependent. Walk Score sits at 21, so don’t plan on walking far for errands.

Most residents here stay a while: the average length of stay runs around 189 days, and occupancy holds at 81%. Nursing staff provide close to 4 hours and 40 minutes of total care per resident each day. Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay are all accepted, which covers most of the ways a family might be paying.

Rehabilitation services anchor the clinical side, and two named programs round things out: home-based services and caregiver support, the second of which is worth noting since it’s aimed at the family doing the caregiving, not just the resident. Religious services are also part of the offering. Pets are allowed, and transportation plus fitness and recreation options are available too.

What we know about Good Samaritan Society – St. Vincent adds up to a smaller, long-running nursing home built for residents who need ongoing daily care rather than a short rehab stay, with a leaner service list than some larger facilities but a steady, decades-long presence in the Bismarck community.
