The housing minister is assuring that there will be oversight of the intensive care model that will replace some of the services at Horizons 106.
The final piece in a trilogy of services that will replace that facility was announced yesterday. There will be light, moderate, and intensive care models in place for those that need it.
During a protest at Confederation Building last week some people raised concerns about the intensive – or 24/7 – care model run by Ben Said Services.
Specifically, people are concerned that security and other issues will arise with two people being housed in a room at once.
Minister Chris Tibbs toured the facility last week.
He says he gets people’s concerns, and they will ensure that people are matched appropriately and that they receive the appropriate supports. Tibbs says government can “pivot as we go.”
