CONNECT Parksville
CONNECT Parksville is scheduled to open in the fall of 2026. Like our Saanich Peninsula location, Parksville will be a partnership with Island Health and is planned to primarily serve the Central/North Island population of Vancouver Island. This purpose-built building will feature four individual houses, each designed to include six or seven bedrooms — for a total of 26. The future coaching resource team is expected to include healthcare professionals from diverse disciplines such as nursing, occupational therapy, physiotherapy, speech-language pathology, recreation therapy, and psychology.

Strategically Located CONNECT Homes on Vancouver Island
Centrally located in beautiful Parksville, CONNECT Parksville will offer close access to everything this island town has to offer — from long sandy beaches and scenic walking trails to ocean views and a vibrant town center. These natural and community-based resources will be accessible to the people supported by CONNECT and the coaches we will work with. CONNECT Parksville is expected to proudly serve the Central/North Island region.

“You can see how CONNECT’s Life Redesign Model is so effective. In the hospital, we were lucky if my husband was sitting up for four hours a day, and if he wasn’t sitting up, he was in bed. But in CONNECT, he works with the coaches and otherwise hangs out in the kitchen. I can tell he’s interested.”

“Such a terrific step in my rehabilitation! The homes are very comfortable with all the amenities. There is an opportunity to practice independence and they encourage the client to develop the skills and mentality to return to independent living. A must on the road to recovery!”

“We are so grateful for everything CONNECT did for our son. They are such a great group of people, he will remember them for the rest of his life. They encouraged him to be himself and do whatever he wanted, a nice, relaxed atmosphere in the house.”
