Nova Scotia Health Authority's innovative Care by Design program provides residents of long-term care facilities with high-quality and consistent primary care. The program aims to achieve quality of life for our most frail seniors and an appropriate healthcare approach to meet their health needs. Comprehensive, collaborative, and resident-centered care are ensured through the program.
As a Care by Design physician, you will join a collaborative team of family physicians striving to improve continuity and quality of resident care in long-term care facilities. This includes ensuring better safety of residents' medication regimens, reducing transfers to emergency departments, and empowering residents to be participants in their care planning.

- Round on patients at the long-term facility no less than once a week and be on call between 8:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m., Monday - Friday.
- Work with other providers in the geographical network to provide evening and weekend coverage.
- Utilize an electronic medical record (EMR) and record all relevant patient details in a provincially approved EMR, which is common and accessible to all collaborating team members.
- Permanent or locum, part-time.
- Minimum requirement to round on patients once a week.
