The Fraser Health Authority says it will start construction on a new long-term care home in the Metro Vancouver city of Delta in 2025.
The project, which is expected to be finished in 2027, will replace Mountain View Manor and its 92 beds.
The new facility is being designed as households that accommodate 12 or 13 residents each, with 200 beds in total.
Each home will also include social and recreational spaces.

R-C-M-P say a man in his 30s has been arrested and charged with break-and-enter after a burglary in North Vancouver.

Sajjan says the funds will flow through agencies of the United Nations and the Red Cross as well as non-governmental organizations to provide basic food, water and health services. Nearly $31 million will go toward Sudan, while slightly more will be sent to South Sudan, which seceded from that country in 2011.
New Westminster police says they are temporarily increasing their presence in the city's downtown in an effort to address safety concerns. It says this comes after a shooting, two stabbings and several assaults with weapons in the past two months.
