WELLNESS AND RECREATION OPPORTUNITIES ABOUND

Whether you’re looking for mental or physical health services, for a provider for your family or for a comfortable place to live for an older family member, Hutchinson has options.

Hutchinson Health has undergone extensive changes in the past few years, fi rst joining Bloomington-based HealthPartners in 2018, then tackling a $21 million expansion from 2019-2020 while James Lyons stepped in as the new president and CEO. But it’s not alone in providing health services. The Dassel Clinic offers primary care, mental health services and orthopedic care. Assisted living facilities such as Ecumen Oaks and Pines, Harmony River Living Center, Woodstone Senior Living and Prairie Senior Cottages provide options for older residents. Allina Health Home Care and Adara Home Health provide further opportunities for individuals who want to remain home or return home quickly.

And that only scratches the surface of local offerings. “Every day I am humbled by the examples of selflessness and commitment by the Hutchinson Health team. They are truly here in partnership with our community.”

president of Hutchinson Health
