(KWNO)-Winona nursing homes are benefiting from State’s $173 million in new funding. The money is part of a bipartisan agreement aiming to stabilize a sector of the economy that is facing financial hardship. Representative Gene Pelowski (DFL-Winona) pushed for the funding during the last legislative session.
“Nursing homes have been hit hard these last several years, and there was a great need at the Legislature this year to provide the support residents and workers required,” said Rep. Pelowski.
Winona nursing homes will receive a total of $919, 894:
- Sauer Health Care $255,086
- Lake Winona Manor $333,408
- Saint Anne Extended Health Care $331,400.
The facilities will receive the same amount of money in August 2024.
