Intermediate Resource

An intermediate care facility is a living environment tailored to the needs of individuals who are losing their independence or who require assistance or support with daily activities.

Each intermediate care facility is bound by an agreement with a public institution within the health and social services network, which is responsible for the quality of the services provided there.

Who is this type of housing intended for?

People who are losing their independence, can no longer remain at home, but do not require as much intensive care as that provided by CHSLDs.

  • Social services
  • Nursing care
  • Physical rehabilitation services (physical therapy, occupational therapy, kinesiology, etc.)
  • Nutrition services

  • Round-the-clock supervision
  • Laundry and linen service
  • Housekeeping
