Huge Nanaimo facility brings new era of dementia care
NANAIMO — Construction is complete on a massive complex care facility in Nanaimo specializing in care for people with dementia.
Janeane Coutu, chair of Nanaimo Travellers Lodge Society, told NanaimoNewsNOW the 130-bed, $30 million Eden Gardens on Northfield Rd. will be accepting residents shortly.
“We took possession of the keys this week, the building is ours and we’re set to move in,” Coutu said. “The furniture will be arriving throughout the month and April 28 is moving day for all of our residents and staff.”
She said 90 residents are slated to move in on April 28, followed by the remaining 40 in the second or third week of May.
