Healthcare in Newfoundland & Labrador

Healthcare in Newfoundland and Labrador has recently undergone a significant transformation with the integration of the former health authorities, including Central Health which previously covered the Exploits Region, into NL Health Services, the province’s new unified health authority. While this transition has streamlined healthcare administration, individuals in the Exploits Region seeking local service information are still encouraged to visit the Central Health website, which remains a valuable resource.

For those in need of a family doctor in Newfoundland and Labrador, NL Health Services offers a convenient solution through Patient Connect NL. If you currently do not have a primary care provider or anticipate being without one in the next three months, you can register online at Patient Connect NL or call 1-833-913-4679 to find a suitable family doctor. This initiative aims to ensure that residents have access to essential healthcare services and primary care providers, contributing to the region’s commitment to improving the well-being of its communities.
