There are many wonderful caretakers from agencies, but there are those who will take advantage of an elderly person. It is not entirely uncommon to see a caretaker from an agency turn the patient against their family and steal their assets. Jacklyn Ryan provides suggestions to people looking into caregiving agencies for a loved one. Interview at least three agencies, interview individual caretakers and ask if the possibility of an administrator home check-in is possible. By taking these steps it is more likely that you will find a caretaker who will look after the well-being of your loved one. She also suggests that you plan ahead so that if an emergency happens everyone is prepared.
