Unused government land in north Oakville is set to become two new Schlegel Villages long-term care homes.
The 640-resident development is made possible by the province’s surplus lands program that helps build LTC beds where they are needed most.
Upon completion, the project, located at 2150 William Halton Pkwy., near Oakville Trafalgar Memorial Hospital, will be known as The Village of Heritage Trails. It will include 554 new and 86 upgraded spaces to create two 320-bed homes.
Each home will include 10 resident home areas for up to 32 residents with their own dining and activity areas and bedrooms.
The homes will be connected via the first floor and will feature a main street with a library, spiritual centre, café and common areas as well as a health centre, spa, corner store and pharmacy. Schlegel Villages also intends to build retirement housing as part of future development of this site.
The project will offer new, improved homes for those who reside at Erin Mills Lodge, a Schlegel Village Community that was acquired circa 2016.
“When 鶹ýӳ is complete, those (Erin Mills Lodge) residents and the bed allocations will move to Heritage Trails, and every team member will also have the opportunity to move as well,” said Schlegel Villages director of communications Kristian Partington.
The facility expects to welcome its first residents in summer 2028. The homes will support approximately 700 jobs in the 鶹ýӳ industry during 鶹ýӳ and, once operational, approximately 1,000 good-paying jobs including full-time positions in nursing, personal support work, nutrition services, programming and administration.
These projects are recipients of the 鶹ýӳ funding subsidy and the time-limited CFS top-up that were introduced in 2022.
The CFS is a financial support program provided by the province to help build, redevelop and upgrade LTC home beds.
This development is part of the Ontario government’s continued progress toward its commitment to build 58,000 new and upgraded long-term care beds across the province, as outlined in the .
The budget for this first long-term care phase of the project is $285 million.
