Make an Appointment
NSCN is working hard to support you during the COVID-19 pandemic. Though the Nova Scotia government has lifted some of the restrictions, we continue to take steps to protect you, staff, guests and others.
NSCN is now open to the public. We encourage you to make an appointment (using the Appointment Request Form) if you need to come to the office. We kindly ask that you arrive at your scheduled appointment time. Click HERE to see what we are doing to protect you, staff and others.
Appointment Times
Appointments are available Monday to Friday from 9-11:45 a.m. and 1-3:45 p.m. Appointment requests must be submitted at least 48 hours prior to the appointment date using the online form found below.
Appointment times are offered in 30-minute blocks. It will be vital for you to indicate the reason for your visit on the request form so staff can schedule appropriate cleaning in between appointments. We will make every attempt to accommodate your request.
Appointment Confirmation
A member of our team will reach out to you by email within 24 hours during normal business hours to confirm your appointment. Depending on your request, there may not be a need for you to travel to our office for an appointment. Instead, we can provide virtual support through email or phone.
Safety Measures
We have met or exceeded the safety measured required within the workplace to keep guests, staff and others safe. You can read more about these measures here.
Note about Cash
If your appointment is related to the transfer of a cash payment, please have the exact amount. During the COVID-19 pandemic, we are trying to minimize the transfer of cash between individuals.
