What is Residents’ Council?
A Residents’ Council is an independent, self-determining group made up of only residents of a long-term care home. The Council is intended and designed to form the collective voice of all residents who reside in the LTC home, whether they attend meetings. All residents have the right to participate in the Residents’ Council.
The Council meets regularly and offers residents opportunity to be informed about upcoming events and updates to the home, discuss suggestions and offer advice about life here. Meeting times are posted in home area activity calendars. Minutes of each council meeting are also posted in each home area and/or main lobby of the home. Please reach out to the Program and Support Services team for more information.

About Sunset Manor
Sunset Manor is located on 8.56 acres of land at the corner of Raglan and Erie Streets in Collingwood and provides accommodation, support services, nursing and personal care service for 148 permanent residents and two short-stay residents.
The approximately 136,000 sq. ft., two storey facility, hosts five decentralized resident accommodations, called houses. The West is our 24 bed memory care unit, South Simcoe is a 24 bed unit, Georgian One and Georgian Two are both 35 bed units and Collingwood Two has 32 beds. 60% of resident rooms are private with an ensuite washroom and 40% are semi-private (two bedrooms) with an ensuite washroom.
Each house has its own dining/servery, activation area, lounge, and staff support space. The core areas provide support services including, beauty salon/barber and podiatry service space, main kitchen, laundry services, management and administration offices, meeting rooms, and the power plant. Communal space for residents and public include a dining room, living room with fire place, library, therapy room, tuck shop, auditorium, worship centre and community outreach space.
In 1997 the Victorian Order of Nurses Day Away Program and the Red Cross Community Health Services Program relocated to the home, with Hospice Georgian Triangle joining in 1998. The Manor also provides Meals-on-Wheels, Short-Stay, and Podiatry Services to individuals in the local community, "co-op" and clinical training experiences for students, community meeting space and support services to Sunset Village.
The Manor is responsible to a Committee of Management called the Seniors' Services Committee, composed of members of County of Simcoe Council along with one appointed representative from each of the cities of Barrie and Orillia. The programs and services of the Manor are regulated by the Residential Services Branch of the Ontario Ministry of Health.
