Community Details
An eighty-minute drive southwest from Halifax, Liverpool is quintessential small-town Canada. On one side of the picturesque Mersey River, you’ll find lots of functional amenities, including direct highway access, two large grocery stores, retail storefronts, and the Queens Place Emera Centre, which features a full-size ice rink, fitness centre, and outdoor recreation space boasting a state-of-the-art, professionally designed skate park, splash pad, accessible playground and more (with a new outdoor pool currently under construction).
However, you’ll find Liverpool’s true charm as you cross its iconic blue bridge spanning the Mersey and enter the walkable historic downtown. A quiet throwback to a simpler time, it boasts a locally-owned bakery, coffee shop, café, pub, craft brewery, boutique shops, salons, two pharmacies, two pizzerias, a florist, museums, and the crown jewel of our downtown: The historic Astor Theatre, where you’ll find year-round offerings of live music, theatrical performances, film festivals, and much more.
In addition to all of this, venturing just outside of town opens up another array of amenities: the extensive trail system radiating from Pine Grove Park, under-the-radar surfing spots, multiple white sand beaches, historic lighthouses, two beach resorts, and a number of hidden gem eateries, gift shops, and general stores all lie within a twenty-minute drive of downtown. Wherever your interests lie, the greater Liverpool area has something great to offer. Physicians in Nova Scotia provide fulfilling patient care which embraces family life, professional development and community involvement. That's what makes practicing medicine in Nova Scotia unique. Physicians are increasingly attracted to practices that offer team-based care to their patients and allow them to consult with their peers. The size and scale of Nova Scotia allows for better connections across the health care system. Your practice of medicine and your life is richer here. Nova Scotia is more than medicine.
Nova Scotia Health Authority (NSHA) is committed to being a workforce that is free of discrimination, values diversity, and is representative, at all job levels, of the people we serve. Our priority groups are Aboriginal People, African Nova Scotians, Persons with Disabilities and Recent Immigrants. Members of these groups are welcome to apply and self-identify if they wish to be considered under our Employment Equity policy.
