Nova Scotia Hearing and Speech Centres History
Nova Scotia Hearing and Speech Centres was initially established
in 1963 by a group of interested citizens in Halifax who
felt the need for such a service in their community. Nova
Scotia Hearing and Speech Centres has grown to encompass
all regions of Nova Scotia and individual Centres are located
in 25 communities throughout the province. School aged children
receive speech and language services through school boards.

Audiologists and Speech-Language Pathologists are trained
health care professionals who assist people with hearing
and speech and language disorders. If you are interested
in pursuing a career in these professions more information
is available at the School of Human Communications Disorders,
Dahousie University.
In 2001 the Nova Scotia Hearing and Speech Clinic became
Nova Scotia Hearing and Speech Centres
and a new logo was developed in order to better reflect
the services we provide to communities throughout Nova Scotia.
