My ever so busy brain is up early…But it leaves my body still asleep!
I’m interviewing 2 prospective carers Thursday and Friday this week.
I’m just needing to employ 1, but now I’m wondering if I would be better with 2 job sharing??? It’s initially only a Sunday morning I need covering. But I also need them to cover Bev’s hols and any longer than a couple of days sick.
As you know, the Boudica’s Bev has just taken on more hours, since 2 of my previous carers finished. But as Bev is only human, she needs time off and has a family of her own.
At the mo, if Bev isn’t chez nous, poor old hubby is my stand in…And he like Moi, isn’t getting any younger nor fitter, bless him!
dont think you need to make any decisions until you’ve met them. Hopefully you’ll like both, and they you, and then see how flexible they are and what suits everyone. Having potential respite always useful probably, but decision might be obvious after you’ve spoken to them. Im sure it must be very difficult given the nature of the relationship, so just go with your gut xx
You could start a carers training business. Get Bev to train em to her exacting standards. You road test them the ship them out to the rest of us. We could pay you in socks. I believe that post Brexit the ‘Sock’ will be legal tender in the U.K.
