Health Care Special Events:
Weskota Manor
Avera’s 45th Anniversary – Congratulations Weskota
Manor Avera on your 45th Anniversary. Although the private,
non-profit, 40-resident nursing facility was incorporated in 1964, the first
residents were not admitted until March 1, 1965 so anniversaries have been
celebrated from that date forward. Our caregivers are guided by our mission
to promote a life worth living for all by providing a home full of love,
respect & companionship.
