About Senior Care in Nova Scotia

Nova Scotia's Homes for Special Care Act governs licensed nursing homes and residential care facilities, administered by the Department of Seniors and Long-Term Care. Nova Scotia Health coordinates access to publicly funded placements through its Single-Entry Access system. Unlicensed assisted living homes are private pay and are not accessed through that system. 

Each city page lists the homes we know about, so you can compare care types and amenities side by side.
