Rona Simsuangco

HEALTH CARE ASSISTANT PROGRAM (HCA)

Rona was a practicing Midwife in the Philippines before immigrating to Canada in 1998. Here she has been a LPN since 2007 working in Acute care in hospital settings, and as a Client Services Supervisor for one of the largest Home Support agencies in BC.

In addition to classroom and clinical instruction, Rona is also a key contributor to the development of Drake Medox College’s Health Care Assistant Program curriculum.

Rona believes that everyone in the classroom is equal, and that learning is a continuous process that is enhanced by the collective experience of both the instructor and the students. She invites her students to share and learn from each other in pursuit of becoming the best HCAs possible!

Success Story

I credit my success in finding work straight after I had graduated to their positive training environment and the very supportive staff at Drake Medox. It is from my experience at Drake Medox that I would definitely recommend them to all my family and friends. Thank you Drake Medox College for making my dream of becoming a healthcare assistant come true! I am very happy with all that I've managed to achieve so far and feel I have a bright future ahead!
