Files relating to the Home Support program, a component of the Long Term Care program, including day and subject files of the Provincial Home Support Co-ordinator. The Home Support Program seems to have evolved from the Special Care, Adult Division (SCAD) which first appeared in the Department of Human Resources annual report organization chart in 1973. SCAD was involved in subsidizing elderly and handicapped persons who were cared for outside their own home and whose income was insufficient to meet the costs of the supportive services they needed, and in providing support services to elderly persons in their own homes. The Long Term Care Program became effective 1 January 1978. It was designed to meet the needs of persons who could not live without help because of health-related problems which did not warrant care in an acute-care hospital. The Ministries of Health and Human Resources were jointly responsible for the program. In 1983, the program's official designation was changed from Home Care/Long Term Care to Continuing Care Division, Institutional Services.

This unit includes records of the Anti-Tuberculosis Society, correspondence of the medical superintendent of Tranquille Sanatorium with his counterparts at many sanatoria in North America and with the Deputy Provincial Secretary. The reports of the Central Council of the Tuberculosis Division and the Coordinating Committee at Tranquille give a good picture of life in the institution, as does the file labelled "Pests". The lectures and examinations for student nurses give a useful view of the understanding and treatment of the disease. The unit also includes packages for various departmental conferences in the 1930s which show how the various branches of the Department of the Provincial Secretary were coordinated.

In 1958, when it was no longer required as a tuberculosis hospital, Tranquille was transferred to Mental Health Services.
