The Region
The geographic catchment area for Eastern Health is that part of the province of Newfoundland and Labrador east of (and including) Port Blandford. This area includes the Avalon, Burin and Bonavista Peninsulas as well as Bell Island. The geographic territory covered by Eastern Health is approximately 21, 000 km2. Settlement patterns, due in large part to the region’s historic ties to the cod fishery, have resulted in many small communities, scattered predominately along the coastline of the peninsulas. The area also takes in the capital of the province and the largest metropolitan area, the St. John’s CMA (census metropolitan area). The boundaries of Eastern Health include 111 incorporated municipalities, 69 local service districts and 66 unincorporated municipal units.
