What a room costs
The government’s maximum accommodation charge in every Type A and Type B home, from August 1, 2026. A home can charge less, not more.

How the comparison works
A visit is counted if it assessed compliance (consultations are not counted). It is non-compliant if the file records any non-compliance for it. A home needs at least 3 visits in the window to be ranked; a home with fewer is listed but not ranked, because one bad visit out of two says little. Every home here is the same type; each row shows its units. There is no overall score.
| Home | Type | Units | Visits since 2023 | Non-compliant |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Youville Auxiliary Hospital (Grey Nuns) of St. AlbertCovenant Health | Long-term care (Type A) | 220 | 4 of 6 visits | 67% |
| Foyer LacombeCovenant Care | Long-term care (Type A) | 12 | 5 of 9 visits | 56% |
