For the past two years, Corina has been a carer for my husband who is bed bound with increasingly complex needs.
She is extremely efficient and caring. She treats my husband with respect and dignity at all times.
She also makes sure that I take some time for myself which in turn helps with my husband.
I cannot recommend her highly enough, my husband and I consider ourselves very lucky to have her.
Kind regards
SC

Corina has been caring for my Mum for just over a year. We as a family cannot recommend her highly enough. She is in constant contact with myself (client's Daughter) or my Niece (client's Granddaughter) keeping us up to date with my Mums health, how she has been and how she has eaten. She will recommend anything which she thinks will help make Mum more comfortable. My mum is bed ridden but Corina works really hard keeping her comfortable and taking great care of her. Everywhere is clean and tidy with all rubbish taken away. Nothing is too much if it is in my mums interest. We find her very friendly and she is happy to talk to us to put our mind at ease and help us in any way she can. I have given five stars only because that was the maximum I could give. We were so lucky to find Corina.
