About Anna K.
My name is Anna Kwiatkowska, and I have been working as a professional carer for over 8 years. In addition to my professional experience, I have spent the past 12 years caring for my mother, who was affected by paralysis following a stroke. Throughout my career, I have supported individuals with a variety of needs, including dementia, Parkinson’s disease, those who are bed-bound, have incontinence, memory issues, and end-of-life care.
I believe I possess the right combination of interpersonal skills, which I have developed and refined throughout my professional journey in various care settings. My approach is always compassionate, respectful, and patient, ensuring that those in my care feel understood, valued, and supported.
