Most retirement homes in Nova Scotia are private-pay, funded from a blend of pensions, retirement savings, and home equity. Government pensions form the floor: the Canada Pension Plan, Old Age Security, and the income-tested Guaranteed Income Supplement for lower-income seniors. Provincial benefits and Veterans Affairs Canada may offset part of the cost. For a full breakdown, read our guide on what senior living really costs in canada.
In Nova Scotia, long-term care and residential care are licensed and partly funded by the Department of Seniors and Long-Term Care, with income-tested charges.
