Hello, my name is Mario and I'm a hardworking, compassionate individual who is close to 50 but feels fit and vigorous. Having migrated from Latin America, I possess medical training and experience from my home country, as well as one year of Canadian experience as a room and laundry assistant. Combining these qualifications with my passion for caregiving and dedication to serving others sets me apart as a reliable home health care provider or caregiver. I live in beautiful Prince George, BC, where I have been based for the past year. I'm proud to have flexibility in terms of geographical location, owing to my open work permit. Most importantly, my cherished family supports my career endeavors, as my wife and son are devoted students here. Apart from my professional life, I have a keen interest in outdoor activities, photography, and dancing to Latin rhythms. I firmly believe that the secret to great caregiving lies in empathy, effective communication, and the ability to adapt and learn quickly - all of which are strengths I'm proud to possess. My availability spans all days of the week, throughout morning, midday, and evening hours, which allows for full-time care tailored to your needs. Whether you require assistance with your regular activities, like ambulation, bathing, dressing, grooming, toileting, or more specialized care like oxygen administration, dementia care, or palliative care, you can confidently rely on me. I'm also equipped to handle household chores, food preparation, errands, companionship, and even occasional pet care. I hold a Bachelor's Degree and a First Aid Certificate, making me proficient in managing diverse health conditions like Congestive Heart Failure, Pneumonia, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, Dementia, Stroke, Diabetes, and more. Regardless of whether you'd prefer me to work from your home, a retirement home, or a clinic/hospital, I'm open to both live-in and live-out arrangements. I look forward to the opportunity of bringing warmth, skill, compassion, and commitment to your residence or facility, helping your loved ones lead a dignified, pleasant, and active life. Your comfort and well-being are my utmost priority.

Having training as a general practitioner, I have experience in managing people with special needs both in-hospital and out-of-hospital. I also had the opportunity to collaborate in the care of relatives during times of their illness.
