South West Nova District Health Authority is...

...One of nine district health authorities in Nova Scotia established on January 1, 2001 through the proclamation of Bill 34, The Health Authorities Act.  District health authorities were created to bring health care decision-making closer to the community level and improve accountability for health care decisions.
