Finding the right caregiver doesnβt have to feel overwhelming. π
It often starts with asking a few thoughtful questions so families and independent caregivers can decide whether theyβre a good fit.
Here are some helpful questions families may want to discuss when connecting with a caregiver:
β’ What experience do you have with needs similar to ours?
Caregivers bring different backgrounds and areas of experience, such as mobility support, memory changes, personal care, or companionship.
β’ What days and hours are you available to offer services?
Availability and consistency are important to help families establish routines that work for everyone.
β’ How do you typically respond to unexpected situations or emergencies?
Understanding how a caregiver approaches these situations can help families feel more prepared.
β’ Are you comfortable following our care preferences and household routines?
Each home and family has unique expectations and priorities.
β’ Can you share references from past clients or families youβve worked with?
Hearing from others can offer reassurance and insight.
β’ How do you prefer to communicate with families?
Clear, respectful communication helps support a positive working relationship.
