SMRH is also leading the way in Nova Scotia in beginning to 'green' its OR operations, trying to reduce waste. SMRH is approximately two hours from the region's tertiary care pediatric facility, the IWK Health Centre, which provides neonatal support.

The commute to work can be so easy, with mínimal traffic and no congestion. The County of Antigonish, surrounding the town, boasts spectacular natural beauty.
