The First Day
- Consider if you would like to have a friend with you the first day.
- Let your friends, neighbors, family members know a new person will be starting to work
for you.
- Go about normal routines.
- Don’t minimize your needs, it sets a bad example of non performance.
- Be as organized as possible.
- Determine your method of having the PA buy groceries such as having cash available or
whether you will pay them back after they make the purchases.
- Remind the PA of your need for receipts for store purchases.
- Get your schedule straightened out for housekeeping, appointments, discuss feedback
opportunities.
- Start out being direct about what you need done.
- Tell the PA at the end of the day the things that they did well.
