The Owner
Helping Hands was incorporated in 2003 and is managed and operated by its owner, Dave Robens. Dave holds a Master of Occupational Therapy degree from UBC, and has several years experience in home and community accessibility, brain injury rehabilitation, senior care, and home design and renovation.
On February 4, 2002, Howard Robens, Dave’s father, had a hemorrhagic stroke affecting his right side and leaving him with aphasia. During Dave’s years of daily involvement in his father’s recovery process, he realized how challenging it is for individuals and family members to navigate through the many changes required to maintain a high quality of life. Building on his own extensive research and experience, Dave created Helping Hands to ensure that people who have acquired a disability, and their families, can still live happy and manageable lives.
