The design includes five bariatric beds, approximately 28 Special Care Unit rooms for people with ventilator/tracheotomy needs and has flexibility to provide respite, care and support for palliative and/or end-of-life care.

The facility includes two homes supporting people with special needs, such as dementia care.</p><p class="phsa-rteElement-Paragraph">The design provides a more homelike setting with flexibility for the future.

It reflects best practices for neighbourhood models, and priorities for access to outdoor spaces, private rooms, small homes and in-home dining. </p><p>As stated in the VCH Complex Residential Care Developments Design Guidelines, the vision is to provide "caring environments that nurture the holistic well-being of clients, support relationships and community, and encourage the growth and development of both residents and staff." Planning for the new Dogwood Lodge is focused on: </p><ul><li>Respect for the individual<br></li><li>Autonomy for decision-making<br></li><li>Privacy and dignity<br></li><li>Quality of life<br></li><li>Choice in a caring environment<br></li><li>Partnership with families & caregiver<br></li></ul> | | |

The agreements are part of a $40 million, 10-year strategy that will see a significant number of the region's residential care facilities rebuilt. </p><p class="phsa-rteElement-Paragraph">VCH, like many health authorities, is planning ahead to meet the complex residential care needs of people living in our region who can no longer live safely at home with support. The Residential Care Rejuvenation initiative is the biggest improvement of residential care facilities in VCH in the past 50 years and is designed to enhance the quality of life for residents. All of the rooms will be private, with ensuite washrooms. This will give residents more privacy and ensure best practices for infection control. Spaces will be brighter and hallways wider to better accommodate wheelchairs. Special care units will provide the safety and security required for residents with advanced dementia and challenging behaviours. </p><p class="phsa-rteElement-Paragraph">A long-term goal of the project is to provide more flexibility in terms of placing residents closer to their home community, since beds will be better distributed based on community needs. The number of direct care hours that residents receive from staff will also be increased under the terms of these agreements.</p><p class="phsa-rteElement-Paragraph">Signed agreements include the following new and expanded facilities (click on the photos below to view larger images):<br></p><p class="phsa-rteElement-Paragraph">
