It shares a property with Sainte-Anne-des-Plaines Institution, Regional Reception Centre, and Regional Mental Health Centre. The institution is based on a radial design model where offender accommodations are direct observation living units.

Inmates are housed in three blocks: the Regional Mental Health Centre (RMHC), with a mixed-security environment, the regular population unit, and a cell block.
