Regional Manager, East Kootenays
On a westward journey from the Bay of Fundy, Nova Scotia, Dan has made frequent stops across our country, gaining experience, awards and family members. He has enjoyed a diverse career in respiratory homecare including both public and private sectors. He earned his certification from the Victoria General Hospital School of Respiratory Therapy in Halifax and upon completing his registry exams, he was awarded the Trudell Award, based on his high academic achievement and commitment to clinical excellence. After landing in Regina, he and his family fell in love with BC through photos so they headed west to Penticton where Dan joined us at IRS. He enjoys spending time with his family exploring the landscapes of the East Kootenays, making pizza and reading sea stories and history in his spare time.
