Trial Run |
|
We hope that up to this point things have gone well, you have narrowed
down your selection and are one step closer to hiring the right
caregiver for a loved one. Our step seven is the trial run. Once again,
you should invite the caregiver to the home where they will be employed
with the purpose of this trial run being an opportunity to watch how the
caregiver takes care of your loved one.
This trial run should begin with the caregiver watching you as you
interact with your loved one, to see where things are located in the
house and how the household is run.
After some time you and the caregiver should switch roles, with the
caregiver now engaged with your loved one and you present, observing the
interaction. Look at the ways the caregiver tries to engage with your
relative, check how your relatives respond and ask yourself whether you
feel comfortable leaving this nanny alone with a loved one? It is very
important that you observe this interaction carefully to be sure that
you are satisfied and have seen everything you need.
Your observation of the interaction will change the behavior of the
caregiver so after a short time step back and observe from a distance to
help you get a much clearer picture of her suitability.
When this trial run is over, pay the caregiver for her time and say you
will be in touch in due course. |
