Vision Nursing Home, Sarnia, Ontario

The Vision Nursing Home project is a 78-bed three-storey addition to an existing single storey 60-bed facility. These beds were awarded through the Ministry of Health request for proposal process in 1998. This facility has been designed with smaller resident home areas of 26 beds per floor. These units can be further sub-divided into a 10-bed and 16-bed unit on two of the three floors.This flexibility allows the floors to be broken into small 'families' of residents with similar needs and medical conditions, such as Alzheimer's disease. Through our knowledge of the design guidelines and a close working relationship with the Ministry of Health and the Ontario Fire Marshall we are able to create large open areas for resident activities and social interaction.
