Pre-RFPPublic HealthDetected Jun 9, 2026

Across Bobier Villa, Elgin Manor, and Terrace Lodge, the reports describe implementation of standardized clinical pathways for falls, pain, palliative and end-of-life care, along with the province-wide mandate to transition to the new interRAI Long-Term Care Facility assessment system by April 1, 2026. Homes report initial implementation challenges, staff training needs, and a desire to use these tools to reduce avoidable emergency department visits and improve quality indicators. This creates an ongoing need for clinical informatics, training, and change-management support tied to interRAI LTCF and RNAO best-practice pathways.Vendors that provide interRAI-compatible software tools, assessment workflow optimization, nursing education, and data analytics can help the homes refine processes, train staff, and use assessment data for quality improvement and reporting. There may also be opportunities to integrate clinical documentation with pharmacy, hospital transition, and BSO programs.

Homes are BPSO organizations and are explicitly aligning with RNAO guidelines, which shapes their clinical and IT choices.
