Since assuming control of the Royal Crest Group, the Trustee has invested over $17.3 million in capital improvements with an additional $2.5 million planned for 2008, thus significantly improving the quality of the resident care and accommodations. Such investments include the purchase of additional medical equipment, new lounge and dining room furniture, pillows, mattresses and bedroom sets, bathing facilities and repairs and cosmetic upgrades to the buildings.

In addition, with Extendicare's direct assistance, we have provided staff with extensive additional training in resident's rights, infection control, skin and wound care, pleasurable dining and professional standards for long-term care. Training is considered to be of paramount importance to our management team and nursing staff who continually implement a variety of training initiatives and best practices for continued improvement
