A Winnipeg family has started a private nursing agency after spending a year in and out of the hospital with their son. They hope to improve conditions for nurses and patients, they say. | Rex De Castro and Simone Jannetta spend roughly 15 hours per day matching nurses and health-care aides with shifts in Manitoba and abroad. | “We’ve had so much growth in the last couple months that we can’t… quite keep up,” Jannetta, 36, said. | Since August, NurseX has drawn around 100 nurses and 40 aides and paid hundreds of thousands of dollars to the workers, the co-founders said.
