At Northwood, our mission has always been to provide exceptional care, but we know that delivering the best support starts with taking care of our own people. That’s why we are incredibly proud to announce that Northwood has been named both one of Atlantic Canada’s Top Employers and one of Nova Scotia's Top Employers for the 14th straight time.

The Veterans Affairs Canada-supported pilot includes 10 Northwood Homecare clients A new mobility device aimed at improving independence and reducing the risk of injury from falls is being tested in Sheet Harbour through a partnership involving Veterans Affairs Canada (VAC), Northwood Homecare and Axtion Independence Mobility.

Something truly remarkable is happening within our Northwood community this holiday season, a movement of kindness that stretches far beyond our walls. Every year, our Holiday Card Campaign invites people to send handwritten cards filled with messages of hope, comfort, and joy to residents who may be spending the season without family nearby. What began as a simple idea has grown into a beautiful tradition that connects generations, communities, and hearts.

A simple idea is making a meaningful difference across our Northwood community. Through gardening, creativity, and shared activities, residents are finding new ways to connect, build confidence, and support their well-being. Our Roots to Resilience Program, recently featured by SaltWire, brings residents, staff, families, and volunteers together in ways that encourage purpose and joy.
