Concept Description

Last Updated: 2004-12-16

Introduction

    There are 123 personal care homes in Manitoba, all of which are subject to two major categorizations: proprietary/non-proprietary and secular/ethnocultural.

Proprietary/Non-proprietary (as of 2001/02)

    Fourteen of the 19 proprietary (for profit) nursing homes are located in Winnipeg. For-profit homes comprise 2553 or 27% of all Manitoba personal care home beds. Non-proprietary homes can be further divided into two categories:

    • Care homes juxtaposed with an acute care facility

    • Care homes that are freestanding.

    There are 39 juxtaposed homes (all outside of Winnipeg), with 1234 or 13% of all personal care home beds and 17% of all non-proprietary personal care home beds.

Secular/Ethnocultural

    Ethnocultural homes are those that residents have chosen because the majority of persons living in those homes profess a particular religious faith, or prefer to speak a language other than English. There are 31 ethnocultural personal care homes in Manitoba, with 2931 or 35% of personal care home beds. All ethnocultural homes are also non-proprietary. Secular homes are not associated with a particular religion, language, or culture; they are either proprietary or non-proprietary.
