Personal Interview |
|
The face to face interview is step six on our list and it something we
believe should be carried out whenever possible in the home of your
loved one. It is important even prior to asking questions to see whether
the caregiver arrived on time, and if not whether they called to notify
you, and whether they brought the documents you requested along.
You should focus your questions so that you can gage whether the
caregiver can meet the needs and practical demands of the job. Keep your
list from step one at hand so your decision can be based on your
priorities. Along with finding out about the experience the caregiver
has had, you should also tailor your questions to find out specifically
if the caregiver can carry out the chores you require. It is also
important to ask for evidence of her organizational skills and
experience in coping with challenging situations.
Whilst listening to the responses provided by the caregiver, ask
yourself the following:
Can you trust this person with a loved one? Does this person seem
caring, warm, passionate about her work and reliable?
It is important that you follow your instincts at all times in the
hiring process. |
