The facility will include two main buildings with households accommodating 12 to 13 residents each, offering single bedrooms with bathrooms.

Estimated to cost around C$134m ($102.08m), the project is expected to begin construction in 2025 and conclude in 2027.

Minister of Health Adrian Dix said: “This new long-term care home in Campbell River will help to address the significant need for more long-term care beds on Vancouver Island, and it will go a step further.

“By expanding the service to meet several other levels of care needs, we can ensure that people in the region will be supported in ways that they can live independently for as long as possible; and for those who need long-term care service, this home will be there for them to continue to live happy, fulfilled lives closer to their community.”
