WATSON, SASK. – A new long-term care home in the Town of Watson, Sask. has moved to the pre-design phase.
A business case for the project is now complete and the Government of Saskatchewan has released a Request for Proposals seeking a qualified project manager and owner’s representative team to provide project management and design services for the future Watson Long-Term Care Home, a release said.
The successful proponent will provide comprehensive design and design compliance services for the Watson Long-Term Care Home throughout the pre-design, procurement, design, construction and close-out phases.
“Moving to this new phase means we are one step closer to offering more long-term care spaces for those needing additional supports in the Watson area. It means so much to residents in long-term care to remain as close to their home communities and loved ones as possible while receiving the care they need,” said Saskatchewan Health Authority physician executive for integrated rural health Dr. Johann Roodt in a statement.
The 2024-25 provincial budget earmarked $1.5 million to advance the Watson Long-Term Care project, as part of the Government of Saskatchewan’s record $4.4 billion capital plan, the release said.
