The new building adds 78 beds, increasing the residence\u2019s total capacity to 224.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cOur teams are mobilized and ready to ensure a safe, coordinated, and comfortable move for all of our residents,\u201d said Alexandre Gorman, administrator of the Prescott and Russell Residence. \u201cThis is a well-planned logistical operation that will be carried out with care to ensure a smooth and successful transition for everyone.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The move will cover approximately one kilometre between the former facility and the new residence. Residents will be accompanied by health-care professionals, community partners, family members and friends throughout the transition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to St\u00e9phane P. Parisien, chief administrative officer of the UCPR, the Ontario Ministry of Long-Term Care recently confirmed that the new facility and its equipment are ready to welcome residents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cOur priority has always been to deliver a Residence that offers high-quality living environments and care that exceed industry standards and that is exactly what we have accomplished,\u201d Parisien said. \u201cThis is a major milestone for the largest project ever undertaken by the UCPR.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">UCPR Warden Mario Zanth also highlighted the importance of the additional beds in meeting the region\u2019s growing long-term care needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe are extremely pleased to have carried out this project, which is of great importance to our regional community, particularly thanks to the addition of 78 new beds, which will allow us to continue meeting the growing needs of our population,\u201d Zanth said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On behalf of county council, Zanth wished residents and their loved ones well during the move and thanked residence staff and project partners for their contributions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>A modernized long-term care home<\/strong><br>The Prescott and Russell Residence is a bilingual specialized long-term care home managed by the UCPR. The former facility opened in the fall of 1978.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The new 193,000-square-foot building features a central courtyard, interior courtyards and large windows designed to maximize natural light. Amenities include a multi-purpose hall, dining rooms, landscaped outdoor spaces and a beauty salon, as well as standard, semi-private and private rooms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The residence also includes modern workspaces and equipment, with care stations at the entrance to each of its seven living areas. Additional space beyond minimum requirements was incorporated to support daily activities and operations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The $93-million project received support from the Ontario Ministry of Long-Term Care, the Ontario Ministry of Infrastructure and the UCPR.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Photos and videos of the redevelopment project are available at prescott-russell.on.ca\/stay\/new_residence.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The United Counties of Prescott and Russell (UCPR) has officially completed its Prescott and Russell Residence Redevelopment Project, with residents scheduled to move into the new long-term care home on October 21 and 22.
