AUGUST 2020
Innovative Design Model Completed
Late August of 2020, Dykeland Lodge, in collaboration with Bird Construction completed an innovative design model for a comprehensive Long Term Care Community, in West Hants Municipality. This community design has taken into consideration current LTC concerns, sustainability, Danish design trends and of course, follows the LTC New Build Requirements. Our team has worked with the Engineers, Architects, Designers, Ministers and Municipalities to ensure that this model can be easily manipulated from a 120-bed facility to a 96-bed facility. Our hope was to share this model with the Long-Term Care Sector as a possible solution for so many of our current issues.

Dykeland Lodge is located in Mi’kma’ki, the ancestral and unceded territory of the Mi’kmaq People, and we acknowledge them as the past, present, and future caretakers of this land. This territory is covered by the “Treaties of Peace and Friendship” which Mi’kmaq WÉ™lastÉ™kwiyik (Maliseet), and Passamaquoddy Peoples first signed with the British Crown in 1725. The treaties did not deal with surrender of lands and resources but in fact recognized Mi’kmaq and WÉ™lastÉ™kwiyik (Maliseet) title and established the rules for what was to be an ongoing relationship between nations. We are all Treaty people. Mi’kma’ki includes all of Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island, part of New Brunswick, the Gaspé region of Quebec, part of Maine, and southwestern Newfoundland.
