New care center director hopes to renew enthusiasm

Tying together the Knife River Care Center and the communities the nursing home serves is a primary goal for its young new administrator.
Blake Kragnes became KRCC’s administrator Aug. 3, after a period of interim directors leading the facility and working to improve its internal morale and external perception. Now, Kragnes takes over as COVID-19 marks a major change for nursing homes all across the nation.
