Overview
Newfoundland and Labrador (NL) Health Services brings together four regional health authorities – Eastern Health, Central Health, Western Health, Labrador-Grenfell Health – and the Newfoundland and Labrador Centre for Health Information. The creation of NL Health Services was announced by the Provincial Government in Budget 2022, following recommendations from Health Accord NL.
NL Health Services provides a broad range of programs and services to the people of Newfoundland and Labrador (NL) through a large suite of facilities, clinics, and community services, overseen by the five zones: Central, Eastern-Rural, Eastern-Urban, Labrador-Grenfell, and Western.
