Huron Perth Healthcare Alliance and Revera Canada announced they are planning to enter a long-term land-lease agreement that will allow Revera to build a new 128-bed long-term care home on the Stratford General Hospital property, on space currently occupied by the Avon Crest building.
Revera was awarded licenses for additional beds from the Provincial Government for the expansion of its Hillside Manor Long-Term Care Home, which currently has 90 licensed beds west of Sebringville.
After assessing various redevelopment options, they in collaboration with HPHA, has determined building the larger, state-of-the-art Hillside Manor in nearby Stratford is in the best interests of both current and future residents and staff.
The existing Avon Crest building, vacant since 2018, will be demolished.
The project is expected to be a catalyst to redevelop the remaining available land on the site.
Plans are to increase accessible housing options.
