The residents of Regina Lutheran Home (RLH) have been left with an uncertain future – as the province announced those living in the long term care facility will be moved next spring.
The residents of Regina Lutheran Home (RLH) have been left with an uncertain future – as the province announced those living in the long term care facility will be moved next spring.
Val Schalme has several relatives in the home. She said her family was blindsided by the announcement.
“All the sudden on Monday, we got an email from Eden Care that the SHA would be moving the residents out of Regina Lutheran Home by April of next year. They’ll be moving them in stages. There was absolutely no consultation with the families by the SHA,” she told CTV News.
“We never heard anything from them at all, until Eden Care told us the residents would be moved out.”
The Saskatchewan Health Authority (SHA) said it’s not pursuing ownership of the property at this time. Residents are set to be moved to other long term care facilities as appropriate spaces become available.
“We will work with residents and their families individually to consider their options and support appropriate placement within Regina over the next few months,” a statement from the SHA read.
The Regina Lutheran Home is currently operated by Eden Care Communities.
