LAND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
We acknowledge that the land upon which we gather is in Mi’kma’ki, the ancestral and unceded territory of the Mi’kmaq People. This land is governed by the Treaties of Peace and Friendship. We pay our respects to the Indigenous Mi’Kma’ki People who have occupied this land for over 12,000 years; past, present, and future. We also recognize the 400+ year history of communities of African descent and the 50 African Nova Scotian communities throughout the region today.

We are Pivoting- LTC Awards of Excellence Gala & Membership Meeting Now Reset to Nov. 25
Our long term care sector is known for its ability to pivot successfully and respond to changing needs in a New York minute. So we are following suit in regards to our November meeting and gala. After careful consideration and upon receiving some important feedback these past few days from our members that a Friday is not the best day for a strong turnout, we have reset the date of the LTC Awards of Excellence Gala and Membership Meeting again- moving it to Monday, November 25.

JUNE 13
LTC PROUD DAY
WHY THIS SPECIAL DAY
The second Thursday of June is #LTC Proud Day annually in Nova Scotia. This year this falls on June 13 and our theme is A Special Calling. It is a day to celebrate those working in long term care and to thank them for making this vital sector their chosen career. In fact, LTC is more than a career- it is truly a calling because that is what it means to work in LTC. It is a day to officially celebrate the expertise, dedication, meaningful relationships, moments of joy, affection and care delivered by staff every day in nursing homes throughout this province.
