Another amazing reference received today.......Laura is an outstanding carer. Laura took responsibility for our mother’s care after her dementia diagnosis for several years, from regular visits in her own home through full time at-home care up until the time she moved into a residential care facility.
Throughout her years long engagement, Laura was a consummate professional, arranging everything directly from scheduling and basic medical needs to personal hygiene and emotional support. With family and professionals, she was communicative, collaborative, reliable and extremely helpful, making suggestions without overstepping her role. But to our mother, she was simply a good friend who was visiting to help with various needs around the house, take a visit out for a walk or to a local attraction or enjoy a chat and some company over a cup of tea. It was a fantastic relationship that felt personal, consistent and compassionate.
The care support we required went from daily visits to full time day care, to 24/7 day and night care with multiple carers. As these needs increased, so did Laura’s responsibilities and we relied upon her more. She understands that care needs can change on a short and long term basis, and her flexibility to pivot depending on the client’s personal wellbeing, attitude and circumstances on the day were always appreciated. Laura can also communicate with medical professionals when required, administer basic medicine and conduct simple household jobs that help to maintain dignity with a personalized service.
Laura’s outstanding dedication to her clients and their families is beyond impressive. Even after Mum moved into a residential care facility, Laura kept in contact to smooth the transition, and then keep up to date with her progress. Laura’s care extends beyond being a professional; she acts as a friend to clients who cannot comprehend their condition, making the experience as comfortable as possible for clients and families alike.
Laura is a multi-talented professional who can serve as both a resource and an asset, but also a valued and trusted confidente. She acted like a friend, felt like an extended member of the family but ultimately performed her work with the utmost competence. We were reassured that our mother was in the best hands at all times.
We have no hesitation in recommending LauraKcares for home care services. She is absolutely one of the best in the business!
