Project Description
The new St. Joseph's Continuing Care Centre has been designed as a co-location model to maximize administrative and supporting efficiencies while also providing an integrated continuum of care focused on individualism and the concept of enablement. The state of the art facility will be built in two phases in order to avoid any temporary placement of residents during the construction period.
Phase I, which will start January 2006, will be the construction of the 150 Long-Term Care beds. The design of Phase I includes five Resident Home Areas (RHA) comprised of 30 beds. Each RHA will have a dining room, activity room, living room, treatment room and personal care centres. One RHA will be designated as a Dementia Unit with access to an enclosed courtyard and outdoor garden. The total area of Phase I is 116,028 square feet.
Phase II will be the construction of the 59 Complex Continuing Care beds. The design of Phase II includes two Complex Continuing Care Units which include a 26-bed Young Adult Unit and a 33-bed unit for adults over 65 years of age. Each care unit will have a dining room, activity room, living room, quiet room and personal care centre. The Young Adult Unit will also accommodate a multi media resource centre to allow access to internet, computers, video and other media resources. The total area of Phase II is 37,825 square feet.
