Residents of the Campbellton Nursing Home and their families are looking forward to the promised replacement of the home, saying it’s needed for the space and privacy and to improve community connections.
“It is beautiful, I like it,” resident Violette Robichaud said this week about the future home. “I hope that I’ll be able to go in too.”
Residents of the current home will be moving into the new one in three to four years, although a location has yet to be chosen.
Robichaud, 82, lives with her husband at the Campbellton Nursing Home, which is near a community college campus and a hospital. She hopes the new home will be close to a store.
“I would love it beside the water. I hope it’s going to be a nice place.”
