Construction has started on a long-term care home that will provide housing for 192 residents in Milton.
Excelligent Care – Milton will be a four-storey complex comprised of six buildings (or resident home areas) designed to create an intimate and familiar living space for up to 32 residents each, with dining areas, activity areas, and lounges.
It will be located at Louis St. Laurent Avenue and Regional Road 25.
The home will also offer amenities like a café, hair salon, secured garden, elder-friendly surfaces and transitions, as well as family-friendly components.
“Congratulations to the team at Excelligent Care on this exciting achievement. Our government is building Ontario’s long-term care capacity to ensure seniors can remain in the communities they helped build,” said Natalia Kusendova-Bashta, Minister of Long-Term Care. “When construction is complete on the new home, 192 residents will have a modern and comfortable place to call home.”
This project was a recipient of the Construction Funding Subsidy top-up, part of the Ontario government’s commitment to build 58,000 new and upgraded long-term care beds across the province.
While offering inclusive services to everyone, the home will also include one resident home area that offers culturally appropriate care to Milton’s Muslim community such as supporting prayer, ablutions, and halal food.
Residents are expected to move in by late 2026.
