| What am I looking for in a caregiver? |
|
The first step we suggest you undertake when hiring
a caregiver is to think about the traits you want your caregiver to have
and to write them down. We cannot stress enough how important it is to
clarify your needs and prioritize them whether you are looking for a
senior caregiver, or a caregiver that specializes in disabilities. In
this way, later on in the hiring process you will be a better judge of
who will be the right caregiver for your loved one.
It is important that your list includes the skills, attributes and
experience you want your caregiver to bring and the tasks she is
expected to undertake in the household. Will your caregiver’s role be
solely as a care provider, do you require someone with a background in
nursing or will your caregiver be expected to cook meals, do laundry, or
take care of the household pet?
Drawing up a list of traits you want your caregiver to have will help
you create a picture of the sort of person you would entrust with the
care of your loved one. You can include descriptive words like,
compassionate, reliable, loving, and experienced, or efficient and
confident.
You will certainly see the benefits of carrying out this exercise later
down the line as searching for the ideal caregiver can be somewhat
overwhelming and it is easy to forget what you were originally looking
for. |
