Port Hawkesbury Nursing (PHNH) was opened in
1989 and is part of the MacLeod Group
Health Service Ltd. which develops, owns and operates
six nursing homes across Nova Scotia since 1981. MacLeod Group head office is
located in Antigonish and prides itself in running well-equipped nursing homes
with professional experienced staff.
The Homes are committed to provide quality care to each of our residents to meet
their spiritual, physical, and social needs while encouraging their
independence. We value our staff, who we believe to be the key to our success.
The Home is a unionized environment with two
unions – the Canadian Union of Public Employees
(CUPE) and the Nova Scotia Nurses’ Union (NSNU).
The Home provides service 24 hours per day,
seven days per week and as such, there are
various 8 hour shifts available. PHNH offers
benefits which include a dental/medical plan,
both a short-term and long-term plan, and a
pension plan. All staff at all MacLeod Group
Homes have access to an Employee Assistance
Program (EAP) which allows staff to access
professional assistance 24 hours a day, seven
days a week.
Staff at PHNH can also benefit from a
voluntary program called Ease that assists staff
who has suffered a disability unrelated to work.
All MacLeod Home are covered under Worker’s
Compensation Board (WCB).
There are various in-services and work shops
that are organized and/or funded by the Home to
provide education opportunities to the staff in
the different departments. Staff help plan
social activities throughout the year from pot
lucks to parties.
Staff children are welcome to visit while
parents are working and participate in the
activities or visit the residents.
