Hospice residence construction update! ✨ It’s been a minute since our last update, and there’s so much progress to share—let’s dive in! Outside, major strides have been made. Curbs have been poured, and connections to the city’s water and gas lines have been completed, bringing vital services to the building. Concrete work outside continues, and in the photos, you can see the progress of sidewalks and personal patient patios taking shape. A lot of care is being taken to ensure that patients and their loved ones can enjoy the outdoors together, with accessible paths for walks, serene patios for fresh air, and green spaces designed to foster relaxation and connection. With the weather working in our favor, the exterior of the building is nearing completion. Crews will continue grading the ground surrounding the residence over the next several weeks, preparing it for grass and privacy fencing to be installed in the spring. Inside, the focus is now on architectural finishes and fine details that make a house a home. Paint touchups are happening across the building, while flooring—including carpet, wood, and bathroom floor—is carefully installed. Wall tiles are going up, and ceiling grids are being put into place, ready to house sleek pot lights that are also being installed. Cabinetry and wood details, known as millwork, are also underway. Every detail is designed with patients and their families in mind, ensuring a warm and welcoming atmosphere. Work is currently underway on the installation of a cozy gas fireplace in the common living room, which will create a comforting space for connection and reflection. Thoughtful touches in the library and kitchen provide places to unwind, share meals, and feel at home, making it possible for families to be together during their time here. With 35 different tradespeople on site on any given day, every corner of the residence is coming together beautifully. 2025, the year Kingston’s first hospice residence opens its doors, is just around the corner! With the opening date fast approaching this winter, it won’t be long now. Our dedicated tradespeople are working tirelessly to bring this vision to life. When the 10-bed home opens its doors, it will provide a welcoming environment for individuals and families to find comfort and peace during their final days together. This vital community resource is one we are proud to offer and we’re now officially recruiting the compassionate team who will help make it a reality.
