MONTEVIDEO – Potential residents, future employees and local businesses are invited to learn more about the Montevideo Veterans Home at a community office open house. The event will be held Tuesday, March 7, from 1 to 4 p.m. at the Montevideo Veterans Home Community Office located at 202 N. First St., Montevideo.
The new veterans home, scheduled to open in the fall, will serve up to 72 residents who are qualified veterans or a spouse of a qualified veteran, and who need skilled nursing care.
Home Administrator Ashley Bormann began her new role in January and has begun hiring the leadership team including Director of Nursing Jana Anderson. Eventually, 164 full-time and part-time employees will work at the home. Most staff will be hired this summer.

The home is also looking to contract with a number of local businesses to provide goods and services, including everything from a barber/beautician and chaplain to laundry services and equipment repair.
Refreshments will be served. No RSVP is required.
