Brian has about 40 years of experience as a realtor. Based in Victoria, he is passionate about serving his clients needs, and as a senior, wants to keep working.
“My most important duty is understanding the needs and desires of my clients, and then translating those needs into results,” he shares.
“My problem over the last few years has been mainly communication. My hearing has been deteriorating leading to embarrassing episodes where I have misheard my clients and had to have [them] repeat [themselves], sometimes several times. That is not conducive to trust and confidence.”
Brian learned about WorkBC Assistive Technology Services from his local hearing clinic. Through WorkBC Assistive Technology Services, he received new hearing aids which do a better job of filtering out background noise.
The hearing aids have made a big difference in his ability to continue working.
“I now feel much more at ease with my clients, and I believe they feel the same,” he shares. “I feel that I can maintain my profession for at least a few more years.”
Brian “absolutely” recommends WorkBC Assistive Technology Services to others in need.
“I believe that the standard of true professionalism should be that you helped someone to reach a beneficial result that they might not have been able to realize without your assistance. That is the result that I obtained through your services.”
WorkBC Assistive Technology Services is operated by Neil Squire. Assistive Technology Services are available to individuals who have a work-related barrier due to a disability or a functional limitation. This may include barriers related to traveling to and from the workplace.
