Rethinking Healthcare: What If the Arts, Tourism, and Culture Are Part of the Prescription?
Nova Scotia Healthcare should set the example for Canada. The front end programs include arts, tourism, culture, and rural community support. The province has a chance to change the narrative around healthcare and self-care if the model puts the front end health applications as the priority, not to the discard pile. Waiting to spend budget money on the end result of disease is reactive, crisis driven, and too late. We have to be smarter, and Nova Scotians pride themselves on realizing old models can be upgraded not eliminated.
