Northwood Care Seeks New Board Members

Join the board of Atlantic Canada's leading continuing care organization.

Northwood Care, a legacy of continuing care in Nova Scotia

Since 1962, Northwood has been changing lives, from one powerful community meeting to becoming Atlantic Canada’s leading provider of long-term care, home care, and affordable housing.

As Northwood continues to grow and evolve—with a more diverse team, resident population, and broader community reach—we’re seeking new Board members who reflect the voices and perspectives of those we serve. If you’re passionate about inclusive leadership and building stronger communities, we’d love to hear from you.

If you have a strong background in healthcare, legal, IT, or real estate and development, we invite you to join us in shaping the next generation of continuing care and community living.

Board Commitment and Meeting Schedule

The Board of Governors meets in the evening on the first Monday of each month, from September through June. In addition to the full Board meetings, members also serve on one of three standing committees: the Finance & Audit Committee, the Safety & Quality Committee, or the Governance Committee. Each committee meets once per month during the same period. There are no regular meetings scheduled in July or August.

Send your resume and a short introduction to boardinquiries@nwood.ns.ca to learn more about this opportunity. We can’t wait to hear from you.
