These positions will be spread between the Nova Scotia Health Authority and IWK Health Centre. The IWK says the positions will address needs in key specialty areas, improve access and reduce wait times for specialty services only offered at the hospital. Nova Scotia is challenged in recruiting because its pay scale is at the lower end of the national spectrum. The health authority's working with the government to attract people, particularly those with ties to the area or looking for a work-life balance that's not possible in larger centres. The announcement follows last week’s commitment to fund 15 new seats at Dalhousie University's medical school for medical specialist residencies.
