Long-Term Care

Resident-scale millwork — warm finishes, accessible fixtures, and daily-cleanable durability.

Ministry-of-Health LTC redevelopments and private-operator new builds across Ontario.

About this sub-sector

Long-term care residents live in the building. The millwork has to feel like home for them, and perform like a clinical surface for the care team.

Sandha builds resident-room wardrobes, nursing-station casework, dining and activity millwork and accessible washrooms for LTC and complex-continuing-care facilities.

Our approach

In long-term care, the millwork is furniture the resident uses every day for years. Sandha designs LTC casework to be warm at first touch and clinical after five years of daily use.
