I have known Miss Ngozi Iwuoha as a support worker. I was her supervisor/ cordinator. She demonstrated that she can be trusted, confident, respectful, dedicated and caring she is a good support worker with good listening skills we all missed her.

Ngozi has been a carer for my sister for approaching six months now and has been exceptional in her role. From the moment of meeting with her it was clear that she has a very caring nature, and she also benefits also from an array of previous experience caring for people with high levels of care needs. My sister needs 1-1 24/7 support in her home covering all aspects of care including mobilising, bathing, cooking, feeding, changing dippers, providing medication and companionship it can be quite daunting at first however Ngozi was never phased by this and went through her initial training seamlessly. The role requires staff who work alone in the home so it is very important that I can have complete trust in the carers to work independently with minimal supervision. Ngozi has settled in brilliantly and become an important member of the staff team, she is likewise always willing to work any additional hours that become available showing her flexibility and commitment to the role. I am very happy to have found Ngozi as I was struggling to find carers with the level of experience needed. I would have no hesitation recommending Ngozi to any prospective employer as her standard of work is first class, she is reliable, caring in nature and my sister has really taken to her also.
