AWARE-NS, the Departments of Labour and Advanced Education, Health and Wellness, and Community Services, the Nova Scotia Health Authority, the IWK Health Centre, and WCB Nova Scotia have come together to identify ways to improve health and safety for employees in health and community services.
The objective? To develop a five-year action plan to improve health and safety with a focus on employees working in publicly-funded home care, long-term care, and community services organizations.
In order to make it easy for you to provide input, we will be holding consultations in each of the four regions of the province.
Registration is Required: Select a location from the information posters below and RSVP to Trisha MacIsaac at [email protected] or 902.832.3868 ext. 104.
