About The Opportunity

Are you interested in a career in Emergency Nursing? We are seeking nurses interested in receiving specialty training and a permanent position to work in Emergency Nursing at Nova Scotia Health!

Employees accepted into the program will also be scheduled for regular periods of orientation in the emergency environment with the purpose of providing further support in transitioning to this specialized area. Information related to the program can be accessed here: Overview of Emergency Nursing Program at the Learning Institute
