Healthcare in Nova Scotia

Posted on Tue, Jul 29, 2014 at 11:49 AM

Alright so I'm visiting Quebec and I get sick. I go to the hospital and fear the worst which is of course the waiting time to see a doctor. After getting registered in their system, I am told it will be a little while. I think to myself, lovely, how long is this going to take...Literally five minutes later I'm in a bed, and within six hours, during which I receive blood tests and an ultrasound, I am out the doors and good to go.

Home in NS, people wait six hours just in the waiting room... If ones going to a local hospital and not the 24 hr emerg! you could be there all day... While Quebec could learn a bit from us, we can definitely learn from them in the health care department. I'm telling ya. They know how to deal with sick people here. —ItsNikkiGuys
