REGINA — Graham Design Builders LP has been awarded a progressive design-build contract to construct the Regina Specialized Beds Long-Term Care (LTC) Home project in Regina.
The agreement allows the government to enter a contract with a single proponent for the design and construction but also provides an off-ramp if the government is unable to conclude negotiations with Graham at an acceptable price for the build, a release said.
“We are investing $20 million this year to further advance work on the future 240-bed specialized long-term care home in Regina. I look forward to these additional long-term care spaces being available to support the needs of residents requiring specialized care,” said Saskatchewan’s Minister Responsible for Seniors Tim McLeod in a statement.
The project is expected to be designed as a multi-storey building with “a focus on creating a home environment and incorporating resident care features such as individual rooms with ensuite bathrooms, as well as indoor and outdoor multipurpose spaces,” the release said.
The new home will be built on a site owned by the Government of Saskatchewan that is located south of the Saskatchewan Polytechnic Regina Campus and will be owned and operated by the Saskatchewan Health Authority.
“We are thrilled to be collaborating with the Government of Saskatchewan to deliver the new Regina Specialized Long-Term Care Home as a local contractor. Projects like this hold immense significance for us, and we take great pride in delivering projects that positively impact our province and communities,” Graham Construction district manager Brad Kornum added.
Early works are anticipated to begin in fall 2024 with construction expected to start in early 2025.
