Central Butte Regency Manor long-term care residents temporarily relocated due to water damage

The Saskatchewan Health Authority (SHA) has temporarily relocated 24 long-term care residents from Regency Manor in Central Butte to Moose Jaw and Herbert facilities due to basement flooding that occurred in the early morning on Saturday, August 8.

Flooding that occurred in the basement has left the building without power, backup power, lights, heat or water. As a result, Regency Manor staff followed Code Green procedures to complete the safe and timely evacuation and transfer 16 residents to the Moose Jaw Special Care Home and eight to Herbert and District Integrated Health Facility. Families have been notified and all resident charts, medications, wheelchairs and other items necessary for continuity of care were secured and transferred. 

At this time, the duration of the temporary closure of Regency Manor has not been determined. An assessment of the damage to the mechanical and electrical systems is currently underway. Further details will be released as they are available.

The operation of New Horizons Medical Clinic has been temporarily suspended. Alternate arrangements for the relocation of the primary health care clinic in Central Butte are currently underway. In the event of an emergency, call 9-1-1 or visit the emergency department in Moose Jaw, Davidson or Swift Current.  Non-urgent health related questions can be directed to the provincial HealthLine by calling 8-1-1.
