Local Health CEO: Government Listening To Reform Ideas

The Nova Scotia government is looking at reforming the province's health care system, finding more dollars to pump into front-line care. One area being examined is reducing the number of health authorities in the province from 9 to 2, one for the Halifax capital district and IWK and one for the rest of the province. South Shore Health CEO Dr. Peter Vaughan gives full marks to the McNeil government for daring to open up the system for scrutiny.



Vaughan says the health minister received a good selection of opinions when he met recently with health care professionals on the South Shore.
