Corina cared for my Mum, who has Alzheimer's disease, as a live-in carer on rotation with another carer for 15 months. She is very experienced and was able to handle Mum at all stages of her illness. She is skillful with handling, personal care, and hygiene. Corina takes initiative and is an excellent problem solver, able to deal with whatever situation arose. She is a person of integrity, totally honest, reliable and trustworthy. Corina is positive, unflappable and has a warm sense of humour which helped us all. She is a good communicator and very responsive. Corina is an excellent and passionate cook, making delicious nutritious meals for Mum, and knowing how to adapt them as Mum's needs changed. She took care of all the shopping, making sure fresh food was always available. Knowing Mum was in Corina's care made an enormous difference to us and we knew she was in safe hands. Friends commented on how well Mum was looked after. A consummate professional, I cannot recommend Corina highly enough. A truly first-class person and carer.
