The coalition started a campaign in 2017 to restore services that were suspended at the Albert Lea campus. Citizens donated $5 million toward the clinic and outpatient surgery center.

Rod Schlader, MercyOne North Iowa president, said: “I think the citizens are smiling today, I do, I really do, and they should be. They should be proud of what they’ve done and they deserve all the credit.”
