Project summary
By the end of 2022, 288 new residential places will be added in the Laurentians through the construction project of 5 seniors’ homes, one of which will also be an alternative. This development project is part of a major transformation process for residential and long-term care environments. The mission will consist of offering high quality care and services, on a human scale and centered on the needs of residents, all in a living environment resembling a real family nucleus.
Innovative, the concept is centered on a humanist approach which advocates respect for the rhythm of life where the uniqueness of the resident is recognized. Inclusion, social participation and the maintenance of people’s capacities are encouraged. The human dimension will be at the heart of relationships between residents, their loved ones, staff and the community, and abilities and everyone’s strengths will be called upon.
