Manoir-de-Verdun Residential Centre

A facility at the heart of Verdun’s history

The Manoir-de-Verdun residential centre has been merged with other facilities in the area, CLSCs, and the Verdun Hospital into a single entity called the Centre intégré universitaire de santé et de services sociaux du Centre-Sud de l’Île-de Montréal.

The city of Verdun, through its mayor and council, is the driving force behind the project to build Manoir-de-Verdun, a public care facility for seniors in Verdun.

Opened in July 1970 with a capacity of 225 beds, in 1981 the Regional Council invited the establishment to submit a redevelopment plan to better accommodate its growing clientele.

A period of transition leading to a major transformation

Starting in January 1989, in anticipation of major upcoming renovations and to avoid transfers to other facilities, users were grouped together on five floors, bringing the number of temporarily available beds to 130.

Work began in January 1994 and included the complete renovation of the building with the addition of space for hygiene services (centralized bathrooms), the creation of a new 20-seat dining room on each floor, and finally, additional space for community and rehabilitation activities (physical therapy and occupational therapy).

The Manoir-de-Verdun residential centre now offers 220 private rooms. The work was completed in February 1996.
