Covid-19: room conversion, isolation rooms

The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration awarded a $905,598 Project Grant to the South Dakota Department of Military and Veterans Affairs on August 17, 2021 under the Grants to States for Construction of State Home Facilities program (CFDA 64.005).

The grant funds will support converting rooms and constructing isolation rooms at the South Dakota State Veterans' Home in Hot Springs, South Dakota. The CFDA program aims to assist states in acquiring, constructing, expanding, remodeling or altering state home facilities that provide domiciliary, nursing home or hospital care to veterans. The room conversion and isolation room construction supported by this award will enhance the state veterans' home's ability to care for its residents during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
