How placement works
Applying for long-term care
This is a long-term care home, so you can't book a room directly. Placement is arranged through your local CLSC (through the CISSS or CIUSSS), which confirms eligibility and manages the waiting list for the homes you choose.
- 1A care coordinator confirms that long-term care is the right level of care and that you're eligible.
- 2You pick the homes you'd like, and your name is added to each home's waiting list.
- 3When a bed opens and you're next in line, the home offers it to you.

To the care team at CHSLD Émilie Gamelin 5 AC, Words fail us to express our gratitude at the end of our mental health internship from February 17 to 27, 2026. Your willingness to help us at any time deeply touched us. Your guidance at the very beginning of our internship reassured us. The bond of trust we observed between you and our instructor, Ms. Linda Borough, also instilled confidence in us and allowed us to develop technical and interpersonal skills essential to our wonderful profession. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

The employees at this branch are extremely disrespectful. Those who park on Sainte-Catherine Street before 7:00 a.m. and wait for the parking lot to move make a mess every day by congregating in front of other people's windows. One employee named Michelle, with her Toyota, completely crosses the line (I don't think she's qualified to work in this field). I've already notified the branch coordinator, but there's been no change in their behavior. The next step is legal action.
