When asked what influenced her decision to serve on the board, Kay said, “Living in Windom all my life, I have had numerous occasions where the hospital has been a place where we (my family and I) have had life changing experiences; some joyful and some sorrowful but I believe the professionalism and care that was given by all staff is something we need to keep and nurture in our community.”
