Description | The Hants Shore Community Health Centre opened on September 5, 1985. As a member of the Nova Scotia Association of Community Health Centres and the Canadian Association of Community Health Centres, our health centre shares the vision of offering a variety of health services as well as health promotion and disease prevention programs. Over the years, a vast array of programs have been offered up and above clinical care services. These include Nursery School, Moms and Tots, GED upgrading, Stay in School, Chronic Pain support group, Women's Network and literacy programs. In 1998, grants from NS Economic Development and Tourism, HRDC, The Central Regional Health Board, the Hants Regional Development Authority and West Hants Municipal Council as well as donations of money, time and talents from the community resulted in the renovation and expansion of our old building. Community resident Peter Siemers donated his services as architect to design the handsome and functional building completed in February 1999. Today, the health centre is a busy place with two family physicians, a pharmacy, blood services, Shared Care Mental Health Program and a Nursery School. A strong partnership with Dr. Arthur Hines Elementary School provides recreation, nutrition and literacy programs for the students. A monthly newsletter keeps residents informed of community events and programs. Our Community Health Centre relies heavily on public donations and your support would be greatly appreciated. |
