(April 23, 2018) Report from the General Manager, Long-Term Care Homes and Services

Summary

Community Development and Recreation Committee requested a staff report if ever the Province announces an expansion of long-term care beds. Increasing the capacity of long-term care beds is included in the Province's Aging with Confidence: Ontario's Action Plan for Seniors. This report provides information related to the increasing need for long-term care and identifies opportunities to improve service planning, collaboration and funding that will better enable the City to meet the needs of its aging population.
