Part of my role as a social worker at Windom Area Health is to connect patients with community resources and services that will meet their individual needs. As a discharge planner, I see firsthand the positive impact that community services and support have in assisting patients when they transition from the hospital at the time of their discharge.
Windom and our surrounding communities are fortunate to have numerous resources in our area, but I often find that people do not realize the extent of services and support available. To increase awareness and help connect our community members with available resources, Windom Area Health has a Community Resource listing on our website. This listing provides contact information for multiple services, supports, providers and resources in our area, including:
- Nursing Homes and Assisted Living
- Home Health Care and Personal Care Attendants
- Hospice
- Home Infusion Services
- Durable Medical Equipment, including Home Oxygen
- Grocery and Meal Delivery
- Transportation
- Volunteer Services
- County Agencies
- MN Linkage Line Services

Note: This listing is updated periodically to reflect changes in available services or contact information.
