Fairvern Redevelopment
Following the Province’s commitment to fund additional beds, work to redevelop the Fairvern Long Term Care Home with 160-beds in Huntsville is well underway!
- 7.32 acres in size
- East side of Centre Street North, between West Road and Hanes Road, Huntsville
- Generous front on new municipal road, Paisley Ave.
- Backing onto protected greenspace
The Fairvern Long-Term Care Home redevelopment project in Huntsville aims to create a true home environment that puts residents first. The new Fairvern will be home to 160 residents and will replace the existing Fairvern. The new home will focus on promoting independence, enhancing quality of life, and providing a supportive setting for both residents and staff.
The project incorporates best practices in infection prevention, energy efficiency, and resident-directed care, demonstrating the District's dedication to high-quality, sustainable care for those most in need.
The design follows a "small house" concept based on a social rather than medical model, which further supports resident independence and overall wellbeing.
