Governor Mark Dayton says a just-released work group report on elder abuse in Minnesota shows “egregious” and “immoral” behavior on the part of caregivers and he’s calling for more oversight

 

Dayton today announced that Jan Malcolm will step in as Commissioner of the Health Department. She says protecting the well-being of Minnesotans–seniors in particular–will be among her top priorities.
