“Setting Your Caregiver Up for Success from Day One”

At Hope Senior Home Care, we’ve learned that the first day with a new caregiver can set the
tone for the entire care experience. A little preparation goes a long way in helping both you and
your caregiver feel confident and comfortable.
Here’s what we recommend for a smooth start:
 Give a quick home tour – Point out important areas like the kitchen, bathroom, laundry
space, and any storage spots for care supplies.
 Share your routines – Let our staff know your preferred wake-up times, meal schedule,
and favorite activities.
 Introduce the pets – If there are furry friends at home, a quick introduction helps
everyone feel at ease.
 Highlight special instructions – From dietary needs to preferred laundry detergents,
these details make a big difference.
The more information your caregiver has on day one, the more personalized, comfortable, and
safe your care will feel from the start.
Our Promise: We’re here to support both you and your caregiver every step of the way—so
don’t hesitate to reach out to our office with any questions before or after your first visit.
