About the Centre
Tavistock is the place where peopleCare’s culture of caring and community service first began. CEO Brent Gingerich’s grandparents, LeRoy and Ruth Schlegel, founded peopleCare in 1967 in an old schoolhouse built in the 1800s. The existing Tavistock Long-Term Care Home was built in the 1970s and has been an integral part of the community ever since. Redevelopment plans are underway for a brand-new Home with 128 beds.
