Short-stay beds are a response to the community’s need for 'respite' and 'supportive care' programs. An individual is admitted into a long-term care home for a specific short time period. The supportive care program allows an individual to recover strength, endurance or functioning. LTC home operators have the opportunity to apply to the Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care to operate short-stay beds within their existing licensed or approved beds, and the MOHLTC approves the beds based on need and suitability of rooms offered. Persons in the respite program usually stay for up to 60 days and those in the supportive care program usually stay for up to 90 days. A person can stay a maximum of 90 days in a short-stay program within a year.
Eligibility for admission and placement in short-stay beds are determined by the Home, Community and Residential Care. An active COVID-19 outbreak at a long-term care facility is determined if the facility has at least one lab confirmed case of COVID-19 in either a resident or a staff member, and the local public health unit or the home has declared an outbreak.
