Tips for finding a match
When you have made contact with a person who needs help via Hart voor Woerden, it is wise to make an introductory meeting to see if it clicks. Here too, it is important to be aware of safety. Hart voor Woerden has drawn up the following tips that you can use as a guideline:
Tip 1: A private person seeking help through Hart voor Woerden often feels vulnerable. Asking for help is never easy and an internet platform is a fairly unknown way for many. Try to take into account possible feelings of insecurity and insecurity. You can do this by, for example, first making a phone appointment to get acquainted by phone. Or to have the introductory meeting supervised by one of our cooperation partners in your municipality. These partners can guide you in selecting a suitable provider. For more information, please contact us.
Tip 2: Would you rather not meet at home at the first meeting? Then meet in a public place such as the library, or a cafe nearby.
Tip 3: When you contact us, ask for a legal proof of identity and check this. An honest person will have no problem with this.
Tip 4: Trust your gut. How does the person in you feel? What makes you feel this way? Do you want to build a personal relationship with this person?
Tip 5: Make clear agreements during the introductory meeting about the help that is offered, the way of dealing with each other or any reimbursements and insurance. If desired, you can draw up and sign a contract together.
Tip 6: Take a Certificate of Good Conduct (VOG) with you if you need one. The VOG is a statement showing that a person's behavior does not constitute an obstacle to the performance of a specific task or function in society.
