Ask for references and verify concrete experience with people with similar conditions.
Establish a clear contract that includes hours, activities, payment, and termination conditions.
Involve the elderly person in choosing the caregiver — their acceptance is crucial for the success of the care.
Make regular visits and discuss openly with the caregiver about the progress of the person being cared for.
