In the past year, approximately 27% of the tenants utilized some sort of assistance. Spring Valley Living maintains continuing arrangements with other organizations and health professionals to provide access to physical, occupational, and speech therapists, podiatrists, and mental health specialists to meet the healthcare needs of its residents and there were approximately $96,000 of services that were provided to tenants that were needed, but the tenant did not have the money or source of funding through other means to pay for (charity care).
