Tips for a work agreement with a home health care provide for an aging senior:

Step #1: Pay attention to details.When it comes to creating an effective work agreement, you’ll need to be as specific as possible and recognize that outlining the details is important to having a smooth working relationship and peaceful interactions with the patient and the family. Think about conflicts, problems, or other daily situations that could be uncomfortable or difficult to discuss. Outline your policy and expectations in writing, so it is made clear from the get go. Write clearly and succinctly with sentences that are to the point and easy to understand.
Step #2: Don’t forget the basics.You may spend a lot of time writing your policies on some of the “what-if” situations, but don’t forget to include some of the basic guidelines in your work agreement such as hourly pay rate, overtime policies, living arrangements, and basic daily duties that you are able and willing to provide to the patient and family. You should also set a policy for sick time and vacation time.
Step #3: Outline your emergency procedures. No one wants to imagine emergency situations happening, but a responsible caregiver has solid emergency procedures in place, just in case something happened. Define your policy on emergencies and clearly state what you would do in the event of an emergency occurring while the patient is under your care.
