Laurent Series for $f(z)=frac{2}{(z+1)^2}-frac{5}{z-5}$

I am trying to find the Laurent series for the function $$f(z)=frac{2}{(z+1)^2}-frac{5}{z-5},$$ in powers of $(z-1)$ that converges when $z=4$.




The series will converge when $z=4$ is in the region $2<|z-1|<4$. Hence,
begin{align}
f(z)&=-2frac{d}{dz}left(frac{1}{z+1}right)+5left(frac{1}{5-z}right) \
&=-2frac{d}{dz}left(frac{1}{(z-1)}frac{1}{1+frac{2}{(z-1)}}right)+frac{5}{4}left(frac{1}{1-frac{(z-1)}{4}}right) \
&=-2frac{d}{dz}left(frac{1}{(z-1)}sum_{n=0}^{infty}frac{(-1)^n2^n}{(z-1)^n}right)+frac{5}{4}sum_{n=0}^{infty}frac{(z-1)^n}{4^n} \
&=sum_{n=0}^{infty}frac{(-1)^n2^{n+1}(n+1)(z-1)^n}{(z-1)^{2(n+1)}}+5sum_{n=0}^{infty}frac{(z-1)^n}{4^{n+1}}.
end{align}

Is this solution correct?
