This includes adding 15 beds at Corner Brook Long-Term Care by modifying 15 rooms to double occupancy.
Government is adding beds at health care facilities in Western Newfoundland to accommodate alternate level of care patients in the region. Currently, there are patients at the new Western Memorial Regional Hospital who occupy a bed at the hospital and require care such as long-term care, but do not require the services provided at the hospital. Additional beds are being added to help move these patients to more appropriate settings. This includes adding 15 beds at Corner Brook Long-Term Care by modifying 15 rooms to double occupancy and issuing a Request for Proposals (RFP) for an interim Alternate Level of Care Centre in the Western Zone, which will lead to more beds.
