The Presentation and Benedictine sisters are the sponsors for a healthcare network known as Avera Health. Avera means "to be well," and our partners throughout the region help maintain quality medical services and help people to be well in rural areas.

Avera McKennan is a region wide network of physicians, hospitals, clinics, home-based services, prevention and wellness services and long-term care facilities. Avera McKennan Hospital & University Health Center is the foundation of Avera McKennan, and our progress would make our founders proud.

With remarkable new procedures and state-of-the-art facilities, we're more able than ever to fulfill our mission. As the region's finest tertiary care center, Avera McKennan's technologies are second to none. As a result, we're caring for life better each day. We celebrate our history and look forward to the future.
