Chilliwack Long Term Care Capital Project Business Case

Fraser Health is partnering with the Fraser Valley Regional Hospital District (FVRHD) to build a new two hundred (200) bed long-term care home with up to thirty two (32) client Day Program for Older Adults (DPOA) to replace the ninety (90) bed Bradley Centre, currently located at the Chilliwack Hospital in Chilliwack, BC. The design is based on a small household model, with 16 households in 12 and 13 resident household pairs or neighborhoods. Each household is substantively self-sufficient in terms of support space, with minimal support space shared between households, increasing care efficiency and when required, pandemic and infection control resiliency. Each floor also provides floor-shared shared clinical support spaces outside of the household pairs.
