About Us

The Halifax Health Associates are an energetic group of community leaders chosen to engage with our community’s healthcare leader and share that knowledge with community members.  Our Associates meet bi-monthly to gain insight on Halifax Health’s new physicians, services, technology, and talent.  They serve as advisors and ambassadors.  They are a resource to the community and to Halifax Health.   The Halifax Health Associates are credited by the Halifax Health Board of Commissioners and Halifax Health staff as being key elements in the success and growth of our healthcare system.    

Halifax Health Associates was first formed in 1982 by the Halifax Health Board of Commissioners.
