Halifax Infirmary
1796 Summer Street
Halifax, NS
B3H 3A7
Directions

The Halifax Infirmary is the newest of the 10 buildings which make up the QEII Health Sciences Centre. The Halifax Infirmary represents the finest in tertiary health care services. It is located between Robie Street and Summer Street. Although there are entrances from both streets, the Robie Street entrance is the most convenient for access to outpatient clinics and services.

The new Charles V. Keating Emergency and Trauma Centre is on the north side of the Halifax Infirmary. The main entrance to the Halifax Infirmary for cars and parking is off Robie Street between two intersections: The intersection of Robie Street and Quinpool Road, and the intersection of Robie Street and Veterans' Memorial Lane (formerly a portion of Jubilee Road). The entrance to the new Emergency and Trauma Centre is the same entrance off Robie Street: Just follow the signs to the Emergency doors. There is no longer an entrance to Emergency from Summer Street.

The QEII is the major specialized care facility for Nova Scotia and indeed, much of Atlantic Canada. When tragedy strikes, it is important to react quickly in order to increase a patient's chance of survival. Services at the QEII include a modern heliport on the roof of the Halifax Infirmary, state-of-the-art trauma facilities including dedicated trauma OR, and highly-trained rapid response trauma teams.

Outpatient clinics
The outpatient clinics can be found near the Robie Street entrance (Level 4) of the building. Specimen Collection Services, also on Level 4, is open to the public Monday to Friday. Outpatient specimen collection service is closed on holidays.
