GRENFELL — Construction of the new Grenfell Long-Term Care (LTC) Home is progressing on schedule, reaching 25 per cent completion.
Work to date includes wood framing, which is approximately 75 per cent complete, with roof trusses currently being installed, according to a government news release. Foundation work and site utility installations are complete. Site services and rough grading are scheduled to begin in the 2026 construction season.
The new 33-bed long-term care home will include two spa tub rooms, a commercial kitchen, common living and dining spaces, administrative areas, a maintenance garage and parking stalls. Located at the corner of Alberta Avenue and Qu'Appelle Street in the northeast corner of the town of Grenfell, the home will be owned and operated by the Saskatchewan Health Authority (SHA).
Government has allocated nearly $40 million towards the Grenfell LTC home. The Town of Grenfell, the Grenfell and District Health Foundation (GDHF) and surrounding rural municipalities will invest $4.9 million for capital costs and furniture, fixtures and equipment.
"Reaching the 25 per cent construction milestone is an exciting moment for our community," Grenfell and District Health Foundation chair Trevor Burnham said.
"This project represents years of dedication, advocacy and partnership, and we are proud to see steady progress toward a modern long-term care home for the people of the Grenfell district."
Onsite work, led by PCL Construction Management Inc., began in July 2025 and substantial completion is anticipated by spring 2027.
