Nova Scotia Health is the largest provider of health services in Nova Scotia, with some specialized services also offered to clients throughout Atlantic Canada.

We're on a mission to achieve excellence in health, healing and learning through working together, which is reflected in the hospitals, health centres and community-based programs we operate across the province.

Our passionate team of professionals provides a variety of high-quality inpatient and outpatient services including academic, tertiary, and quaternary care, as well as continuing care, primary health care, public health, and mental health and addictions.

Join a diverse team of innovators, collaborators and creative thinkers today.


Nova Scotia Health Authority (NSHA) provides sustainable safe and high quality health services that are accessible, people-centred, promote health and wellness and optimize the health of all Nova Sco-tians.

This is accomplished across four geographic management zones which are responsible for the operation of acute care health centres and the provision of a variety of inpatient, outpatient services including academic, tertiary, quaternary care and community based programs and services including continuing care, primary health care, public health, and mental health and addictions.


The Nova Scotia Health Innovation Hub brings together partners from all facets of health care to solve critical health challenges for the benefit of all Nova Scotians.

Through strategic partnerships with clinical champions, industry, healthcare foundations, governments and academic partners, we're transforming healthcare through the best available evidence and innovative solutions.


The Innovation Hub serves as a single point of entry, enabling key stakeholders to collaborate on in-novative healthcare solutions for Nova Scotians—solutions that have impact regionally, nationally, and beyond, and contribute directly to our local economy.


Nova Scotia is poised to become a global leader in health innovation and a catalyst for change across the province.

By providing the infrastructure and creating winning conditions for homegrown innova-tors to engage with our system, we are accelerating the growth and economic development of the region.
