New Brunswick’s Nursing Home Without Walls (NHWW) program expanded to its 31st location this week.
On Monday, French retirement community, Faubourg du Mascaret, in Moncton officially joined the program. The community’s two francophone nursing homes, Pavillon Landry and Pavillon Richard, are under the Shannex umbrella.
“We’ve been doing a lot of work around understanding from the seniors that are living in our community,” said Gillian Ferris, vice president of operations for enhanced care for Shannex New Brunswick.
“What are the services that they’re needing, what’s missing? What would help them live a better, more fulfilled life, have a better quality of life.”
