Lutheran Home of the Good Shepherd

Lutheran Home of the Good Shepherd LHGS is the largest employer in Eddy County with 150 employees, and many dedicated volunteers. Our economic impact is over $8,700,000. and many visiting areas.

The remodeling/renovation/addition project provides the residents with smaller 'communities' to live in. There are 5 separate dining rooms, activity rooms, spa's, kitchenettes, outside fenced in areas, small laundry facilities, etc. What was once the 'main dining area' is now a 'Vance Anderson Hall' where we have large gathering, music, birthday parties, receptions, etc. We have also added a beautiful reception/sitting area, a "Town Center'" which includes a movie theatre, beauty shop, coffee shop, gift shop, rehabilitative room, activity director office, and a resident care coordinator office . The 'business district' which was previously the southern part of "prairie' wing makes it more convenient for visitors to find who they need for business concerns such as: Administrator/CEO; Education/Safety/Infection Director; Maintenance/Laundry/Housekeeping Director; Director of Nursing; Nursing Assistant for purchasing & scheduling; MDS Coordinator; Human Resources/Payroll; Social Services; Billing; and Accounting.

We are getting ready for Christmas at LHGS!
🎄Last Sunday the Pioneers and Trail Riders 4-H clubs and the St. John’s Knights of Columbus helped put up all the Christmas trees throughout our facility - 12 trees!
🎄Our Activity dept staff has been busy decorating, and our residents even made some homemade dried gingerbread ornaments to go on the Christmas trees (they smell wonderful!).
🎄And the courtyard gazebo is decorated for a Whoville Christmas!
🎄Thank you to all the busy elves helping out!
