Former Red Deer Nursing Home to be demolished
The former Red Deer Nursing Home in Bower will be demolished early in 2019.
Pre-demolition work was recently started, according to a statement from Alberta Health Services. Work to remove hazardous materials from the AHS facility will continue over the next several months. There is no risk to the health of nearby residents.
Once this work is done, it’s expected the site will be used for a new 65-unit seniors lodge, operated by the Ministry of Seniors and Housing.
Meanwhile, AHS has placed the vacant Valley Park Manor in Riverside Meadows on the real estate market and hopes to find a private buyer.
