Nova Scotia Limits Who Can Visit Inpatients

The Nova Scotia Health Authority announced new restrictions on patient visits to all hospitals around the province.

Effective immediately a patient can name up to two people who will be their family or primary support person/people, only those two will be allowed to visit. The people selected can be changed by the patient over time.

They also reminded anyone who intends to visit a hospital to sanitize your hands and if you have been in contact with someone who is sick you should not visit hospitals at all.

The government also directs anyone with questions on Covid-19 to http://www.nshealth.ca/coronavirus and https://novascotia.ca/coronavirus/
