“These Dedication Ceremonies are the culmination of the commitment shown by MDVA, our legislature, our local communities and Minnesota Veterans and families to delivering high-quality, compassionate skilled nursing care environments for our nation’s heroes,” said Brad Lindsay, MDVA Commissioner. “So many have worked tirelessly for so many years to turn this vision into a reality; now we are ready to publicly recognize and honor those efforts.”
