Long-term care home at Runnymede
Runnymede is proposing to build a 200-bed long-term care (LTC) home adjacent to the existing hospital. The addition of 200 long-term care beds on our property positions us perfectly to provide a full range of care to support seniors in our community in a timely fashion and reduce the incredible wait times to which they have been subjected.
Runnymede has a rich 75-year history in the Parkdale – High Park community and strong ties to Toronto’s Little Malta neighbourhood in which we are situated. Currently, this cultural group does not have a dedicated LTC program anywhere in Ontario. We are delighted to be able to designate some of the beds in our planned LTC home for the Maltese population. Not only will this provide them with the care they need as they age, it will allow them to stay close to their homes, families, and community.
We want to hear from you
