Occupancy high at Brucelea Occupancy rates at the two Bruce County Homes for the Aged dropped by one per. cent in 1984, but rates will remain high. Both Brucelea Haven in Walkerton and Gateway Haven in Wiarton had occupancy of over 97 per cent, says a report to Bruce County Council. Don Moore, administrator at Brucelea Haven' said changes at the homes in the past two years ..have resulted in more extended care being 'offered. In 1984 extended care beds at ~Brucelea. Haven were, increased from 68 to eighty-three. Moore told ,county council in the future, even more extended care would be required. Total bed capacity at Brucelea Haven is 156 beds. Advances in medical care have created a new type of patient who does not need constant hospitalization, but requires,a .level of care greater than normally provided in a home for aged. said Moore. To accommodate the need for more extended care, the county, is promoting increased staff education and specializa- tion. Moore also observed provincial subsid les will likely decrease in ' the future, putting 'a greater burden of the cost on the municipality. A decrease would create a system where the user pays a. greater share of the cost. 'As for decreasing expenses, Moore said 'we're `'at the bones right now". A program the county operates success- fully for the past 12 years has been the vacation care program for elderly members of the community who are seeking. short term care. The program is designed to help elderly people who normally stay with relatives, but need short term accommo- dation when their relatives are on vacation. Nine people took advantage of the program last year. CAnADA FAR SHOW ! I1111C1 PLACE, I�R6Riif; JANUARY 29 -FEBRUARY 1, 1985 10:00 A.M. - 6:00 P.M.
