“We appreciate this is a difficult time for our residents to have to leave their home and for their families who are naturally concerned,” she said. “We want to bring their loved ones back as soon as we can.”The first flood occurred Jan. 12 while the second happened on Jan. 26 in a different part of the complex. MacIsaac wouldn’t say how the floods occurred. She said 3.5 units have been temporarily closed due to the situation and confirmed no one was injured during either flood.
Grand View Manor staff accompanied residents during the move to other facilities. Ambulances, buses and vans were used to transport residents to their temporary accommodations. A truck was rented to move personal belongings.“There was a lot of thought that went into who would be transferred,” she said.With 39 acres of land in South Berwick, there is plenty of space for a new long-term care facility on Grand View Manor’s existing property.
She said they were very fortunate to have response crews on site within an hour of each flood to assess the damage and begin the restoration work. Construction crews are working seven days a week to reopen the damaged areas.
