As Kobina took care of my father for the past two years as a private carer , I've benefited from his creative problem-solving, tireless work ethic, and willingness to do whatever it takes to making sure my father was well taking care of until he passed on. Kobina was in charge of his day to day personal care, medication,insulin management, and cooked his favourite meals. Kobina is incredibly generous with his time and professionalism as a Care giver. . Beyond that, I have to say that his humor and good nature make long nights and tough times so easy and my family was so found of him.. I'd be happy to answer any questions you might have about his specific skills and experience. Thanks, and best regards, Lesley

To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to provide a professional reference for Kobina Essiful, who has been employed as a Carer at Carewood from February 2021 to June 2022 During this time, Kobina has demonstrated exceptional dedication, compassion, and professionalism in their role. As a carer, Kobina was responsible for providing high-quality care to our clients, many of whom have complex needs. Their duties included personal care, administering medication, assisting with mobility, providing emotional support. Kobina performed these tasks with great skill and a genuine commitment to the well-being of those they cared for. One of Kobina's most notable strengths is their empathetic and patient approach to caregiving. They consistently showed a deep understanding of the needs and preferences of our clients, ensuring that each individual received personalized and respectful care. Their ability to build trusting relationships with clients and their families has been truly commendable. In addition to their caregiving skills, Kobina has proven to be highly reliable and adaptable. They handled the challenges of the role with grace, often going above and beyond their duties to ensure the comfort and safety of our clients. Their excellent communication skills and collaborative attitude have also made them a valuable team member, always willing to support colleagues and contribute to a positive work environment. I am confident that Kobina will bring the same level of compassion, expertise, and professionalism to any future caregiving position. They have my highest recommendation, and I believe they would be an asset to any organization seeking a dedicated and skilled carer. Should you require any further information, please do not hesitate to contact me. Sincerely, Emily Coleman HR
