Flood at Foyer Père Fiset Results in Temporary Relocation of Some Residents

A wastewater backup at Foyer Père Fiset Nursing Home in Chéticamp on Wednesday, October 8, caused significant flooding within the facility. Two residential wings were affected, impacting 44 of the 70 residents.

Families and next of kin of the affected residents have been notified by staff. A timeline for repairs and for the return of residents to the facility is still being determined.

Access to care and the health and safety of residents and staff remain the highest priorities as the situation is managed. Restoration services are on site providing cleanup and repairs.

Appreciation is extended to the staff at Foyer Père Fiset for their prompt response, and to Inverary Manor’s team for their support and assistance in minimizing any disruption to care.
