Lac du Bonnet care-home plan
THE province will begin construction of a long-promised personal care home in Lac du Bonnet in the spring of 2014, Premier Greg Selinger announced Friday.
The 80-bed facility will cost $32 million. It will replace the existing 30-bed care home in the town.
In February 2011, the province announced a $200-million fund to create hundreds more personal-care home beds to meet the future needs of seniors.
New personal-care homes are in development in Niverville and Morden-Winkler, as well as the Holy Family Home in north Winnipeg.
