I feel that I am a conscientious, hardworking team player, but I am also comfortable

working alone and using my initiative. I am at ease interacting with all members of a

multidisciplinary team with professionalism, and respect. I thrive on new challenges and

learning new skills. I feel that I work well under pressure and within time constraints in

the clinical setting. I enjoy working with the public and feel that I am approachable and

have the ability to put patients at ease during consultations. This position would give me

new challenges, a change of clinical surroundings and an opportunity to develop my

skills. I would embrace further training with enthusiasm and willingness.

I am also in the process of doing my Diploma level 3 in Clinical Healthcare Support at

Warwickshire College, which should be complete within the next 4-6 weeks.

This is the reference Mr Paul Felbeck wrote for my application at HMP Onley. Please feel

free to contact him if you wish.

Mrs Boulton was engaged by me as my mother’s carer for several years, and enabled my

mother to live independently in her own home until she finally moved in with me and my

family in September last year. Mrs Boulton is hard-working, highly responsible, honest

and dependable. My mother was in her mid-to-late eighties during Mrs Boulton’s tenure

and her needs escalated over time; she suffered from dementia in the last couple of years

and was ultimately diagnosed with Alzheimer’s-type dementia. Mrs Boulton was

responsible for all aspects of personal care, shopping, meal planning, scheduling

appointments and liaising with healthcare professionals. She also undertook basic

f inancial organisation (paying for shopping and other personal care bills) for my mother,

and acted as a main point of contact in the event of a crisis. Mrs Boulton is intelligent and

articulate, and very capable of using her own initiative and working without supervision.

Equally importantly, she has a good sense of humour, a cheerful disposition and a “can-

do” attitude. It would not have been possible for my mother to retain her independence,

even after the initial symptoms of dementia appeared, for as long as she did without Mrs

Boulton’s constant attention and flexible approach to caring for her. When I was away on

business or travelling with my family, Mrs Boulton in effect had sole charge, which was a

source of great relief for us. I cannot speak highly enough of her and am delighted to be

asked to act as her referee – she would be an asset to any organisation.

If you have a more structured form that you would like me to complete, please send it to

me either by email or by post to the address below. Please also feel free to call me at any

time to discuss any aspect of this reference. I am a solicitor by profession and General

Counsel (i.e. head of legal) for TT Electronics plc, a UK multinational company traded

on the London Stock Exchange employing approximately 5000 people worldwide.
