Instructions For Caregivers


Negotiation is deciding what a person is willing to give up to get something they want or need. Be fair. Think of everyone’s needs in the situation.

Try this:

  1. Think: What’s the actual problem you’re talking about? Say it out loud in one sentence.
  2. Think: What does the other person want most in the situation? What do they not want in the situation? If you do not know, ask out loud.
  3. Think: What do you want from the situation? Say out loud.
  4. Ask the person to make the first suggestion of a deal and say it out loud.
  5. If that’s not a fair deal, ask them to rethink AND suggest a deal for them.  If they say “No”, tell them it’s okay to keep suggesting more deals, give them feedback.
  6. Agree to a compromise, so you both get parts of a deal you both want.
  7. When you agree, make a promise and say it out loud, write it down, tell someone else about the deal. Keep your end of the bargain.
