On July 31, 2007, the Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care announced the redevelopment of 35,000 older long-term care beds over the next 10 years to ensure equitable access to quality long-term care home accommodation.

As per the announcement, starting in late spring/early summer 2008 the government plans to begin redeveloping approximately 3,500 beds annually. The province’s 14 Local Health Integration Networks (LHINs) together with the Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care will prioritize which projects will go forward for renewal each year.

There are a number of policy and program design decisions that need to be made before the Ministry will be in a position to announce any further details about the Renewal Strategy.

As program details and materials become available they will be posted on this website under Awardee/Operator LTC Development Resources.
