Build a useful request

Describe the person, not only the shift.

A clear brief helps everyone understand the work and its boundaries.

Describe an ordinary day

Start at wake-up and continue through bedtime. Note where hands-on help is needed, where supervision is enough and what the person still does independently. Include transfer method, walking aid, continence needs, food texture, communication style and sleep pattern.

State the practical requirements

Language, pets, stairs, smoking rules, transport, driving expectations, food practices and hospital appointments can affect whether an arrangement works.

Keep clinical tasks visible

If wound care, injections, tubes, catheters, medication administration or clinical monitoring are involved, state this at the start and ask the treating team which qualification is required.

Common questions

Questions families ask

What information should I send first?

Share the location, preferred start date, shift length, mobility level, personal-care needs and whether clinical tasks are involved.

Is a caregiver confirmed once I enquire?

No. An enquiry starts the conversation, not the placement. Availability, suitability and terms are settled directly between your family and the caregiver before any start date.

Is a caregiver the same as a nurse?

No. A caregiver focuses on non-clinical daily support. Clinical procedures require an appropriately qualified healthcare professional.

Ready to describe the care needed?

Send the location and broad daily-support need. Add detailed or sensitive information only after the next step is clear.
