Making Snow Days Better for VIPs

WAYS TO MAKE SNOW DAYS BETTER FOR VIPs:

• If you can’t reach your VIP because of the snow, why not give them a call to have a chat instead?

• If you’re visiting a VIP this week, could you call them before the visit to see if they need any basic supplies (milk, bread, tea bags etc)?

• Before you say goodbye, why not check that your VIP has everything they need to stay warm at close hand (blankets, gloves etc)?

• If a VIP has to stay inside during the snow it can get quite boring, why not take a DVD or CD round that you think they might enjoy?

• Can you find ways to make the snowy experience positive for your VIP? For example reminiscing about fun snow days as a child.
  

AND DON’T FORGET TO CONSIDER YOUR OWN SAFETY:

•  If a VIP hasn’t been out of the house, it’s likely their path won’t be salted – so watch out for slippery surfaces.

• Check the weather forecast before a visit to make sure that you will be able to get home safely.

• Only drive if it is absolutely safe to do so, never put yourself at risk.
