Meet The Team
Success is best when it is shared
Rex De Castro
Co-founder
Rex is committed to empowering nurses. He agrees nurses should be paid more. He believes the nurses and the patients they care for deserve it. With his two children requiring an abundant amount of hospital care in the first years of their lives, Rex experienced first hand, the facilities struggle to staff nurses from the perspective of the patient and perspective of the family member of the nurse. It was after that experience, along with his wife Simone, Rex decided to open up NurseX Corporation and revamp how nurses can connect with clients in Canada.
