Blue Valley Lutheran Homes Society, Inc., was established in 1948 as a social ministry organization by area Lutheran congregations when they saw the vital need for long-term nursing home care in the vicinity of Thayer, Fillmore, Jefferson, Nuckolls, and Clay Counties in Nebraska. Today, 17 of those churches remain as sponsors of our non-profit. BVLH has 180 full and part-time employees from 23 different area communities and is the second largest employer in Thayer County, Nebraska. We are financially supported by operations and by the fundraising efforts of our Foundation for Blue Valley Lutheran Homes, which just played a major part in raising funds for our $6.4 million 2009 assisted living expansion and is currently focusing its efforts on the nursing home’s spa rooms and lobby enhancements. Our unique campus arrangement with the hospital makes our continuum of care an attractive option. We are proud of each of our facilities and are known for our great care. It is our hope that all residents who walk through our doors realize that…they’re home.
