The Government of Quebec is extending the temporary administration of the private residential and long-term care centers (CHSLDs) of Floralies-de-Lasalle and Floralies-de-Lachine, located in the southwest of Montreal.
An investigation report commissioned by the Ministry of Health and Social Services (MSSS) revealed last fall that mistreatment in all its forms had taken place inside the two CHSLDs located in the boroughs of LaSalle and from China. Among other things, the report noted dehydrated residents and signs of physical abuse.
The Integrated University Health and Social Services Center of the West Island of Montreal (CIUSSS) subsequently assured that the orderlies who committed these acts were dismissed.
Since 1er last September, the CIUSSS took over the provisional administration of the two private establishments.
In a press release published on Tuesday, the Minister for Health and Seniors, Sonia Bélanger, indicates that this provisional administration has made it possible to deploy the necessary means to enhance the care and services offered to people housed at the Floralies.
In his opinion, it is necessary to pursue it in order to continue the recovery work started by the CIUSSS.
