The province has committed $2.8 million to address structural problems at the Invermay Health Centre. Saskatchewan Health Minister Dustin Duncan toured the Invermay facility today.
In January, long-term care residents and staff at Invermay Health Centre were temporarily relocated to health facilities in neighbouring communities, following the discovery of some structural damage and presence of mould in the building. Temporary relocation of staff and residents to other facilities, including Canora Gateway Lodge, was required while damage to the Invermay facility was assessed and repair work began.
“It is a top priority for our government to provide a comfortable and safe place for long-term care residents to stay, and a suitable work environment that allows health care staff to provide quality care,” Duncan said. “We are pleased to see the Sunrise Health Region has begun repairs at Invermay Health Centre to ensure that residents may return to their home as soon as possible.”
“We expect the repairs will be completed within six months,” Sunrise Regional Health Authority Chairperson Lawrence Chomos said. “We appreciate the understanding and co-operation from residents, families, staff and the community. The safety, health and comfort of our long-term care residents are the region’s priority.”
Duncan also toured the Canora Gateway Lodge, which recently sustained damage in the dining room due to a cracked ceiling beam. The Sunrise Health Region is further assessing the facility and associated costs to repair the damaged area.
Since November 2007, the government has made an unprecedented $814 million investment in provincial health system major capital projects, building improvements and equipment upgrades.
