Lawrence is a hard working person who goes the extra mile to make sure he delivers his job to the best of his ability. He has a lot of experience and he can work with different clients how have different needs. He is very honest , patient and work’s very well with clients. Lawrence is a very good listener who respects everyone’s opinions and does not judge. I think all these qualities really gives a vivid picture of the kind of a carer Lawrence is and l found him a joy to work with as a colleague.
