Ukukhetha umhlinzeki wokunakekelwa oyinhloko

Umhlinzeki wokunakekelwa okuyisisekelo (i-PCP) ngudokotela onakekela abantu abanezinkinga ezivamile zezokwelapha. Lo muntu uvame ukuba ngudokotela. Kodwa-ke, i-PCP ingaba umsizi wodokotela noma udokotela ongumhlengikazi. I-PCP yakho ivame ukubandakanyeka ekunakekelweni kwakho isikhathi eside. Ngakho-ke, kubalulekile ukukhetha umuntu ozosebenza kahle naye.

I-PCP ingumhlinzeki wakho oyinhloko wokunakekelwa kwezempilo ezimweni ezingezona eziphuthumayo. Indima ye-PCP yakho uku:

• Nikeza ukunakekelwa kokuvikela futhi ufundise ukukhetha impilo enempilo
• Khomba futhi welaphe izimo ezivamile zezokwelapha
• Hlola ukuphuthuma kwezinkinga zakho zokwelashwa bese ukuqondisa endaweni engcono yalolo lwazi
• Dlulisela kochwepheshe bezokwelapha lapho kudingeka

Ukunakekelwa okuyinhloko kuvame ukuhlinzekwa esimweni sokugula. Kodwa-ke, uma ungeniswa esibhedlela, i-PCP yakho ingakusiza noma iqondise ukunakekelwa kwakho, kuya ngezimo.

Ukuba ne-PCP kungakunika ubudlelwano bokuthembela, obuqhubekayo nochwepheshe oyedwa wezokwelapha ngokuhamba kwesikhathi. Ungakhetha ezinhlotsheni ezahlukahlukene zama-PCP:

• Abasebenza emndenini: Odokotela abaqede ukuhlala komndeni futhi abaqinisekiswe ngamabhodi, noma abafanelekile ebhodini, kulokhu okukhethekile. Ububanzi bomkhuba wabo buhlanganisa izingane nabantu abadala bayo yonke iminyaka futhi kungabandakanya ukubelethisa nokuhlinzwa okuncane.
• Odokotela bezingane: Odokotela abaqede ukuhlala kwezingane futhi abaqinisekiswe ngamabhodi, noma abafanelekile ebhodini, kulokhu okukhethekile. Ububanzi bomkhuba wabo kubandakanya ukunakekelwa kwezinsana ezisanda kuzalwa, izinsana, izingane kanye nentsha.
• Odokotela bezokwelapha: Odokotela abaqede ukuhlala emithini yomndeni noma emithini yangaphakathi futhi baqinisekiswe ngamabhodi kulokhu okukhethekile. Imvamisa zisebenza njenge-PCP yabantu abadala asebekhulile abanezidingo eziyinkimbinkimbi zezokwelapha ezihlobene nokuguga.
• Abangaphakathi: Odokotela abaqede ukuhlala kwezokwelapha zangaphakathi futhi abaqinisekiswe ngamabhodi, noma abafanelekile ebhodini, kulokhu okukhethekile. Ububanzi bomkhuba wabo kubandakanya ukunakekelwa kwabantu abadala babo bonke ubudala ngezinkinga eziningi ezahlukahlukene zezokwelapha.
• Izazi zokubelethisa / izifo zabesifazane: Odokotela abaphothule ukuhlala futhi abaqinisekiswe ngamabhodi, noma abafanelekile ebhodini, kulokhu okukhethekile. Imvamisa zisebenza njenge-PCP yabesifazane, ikakhulukazi leyo yobudala bokubeletha.
• Abahlengikazi (NP) nabasizi bodokotela (PA): Odokotela abahamba ngenqubo ehlukile yokuqeqesha kanye neyesitifiketi kunodokotela. Kungaba yi-PCP yakho kweminye imikhuba.

Izinhlelo eziningi zomshuwalense zikhawulela abahlinzeki ongakhetha kubo, noma zinikeze izinzuzo zezezimali ongakhetha kuzo ohlwini oluthile lwabahlinzeki. Qiniseka ukuthi uyazi ukuthi umshwalense wakho uhlanganisa ini ngaphambi kokuqala ukunciphisa izinketho zakho.

Lapho ukhetha i-PCP, cabanga nangokulandelayo:

• Ingabe abasebenzi basehhovisi banobungane futhi bayasiza? Ngabe ihhovisi lihle ngokubuyisa izingcingo?
• Ngabe amahora wehhovisi akulungele uhlelo lwakho?
• Kulula kangakanani ukufinyelela kumhlinzeki? Ingabe umhlinzeki usebenzisa i-imeyili?
• Ngabe ukhetha umhlinzeki onesitayela sokuxhumana esinobungane futhi sifudumele, noma sihleleke ngokwengeziwe?
• Ngabe ukhetha umhlinzeki ogxile ekwelashweni kwezifo, noma inhlalakahle nokuvinjelwa?
• Ngabe umhlinzeki unendlela elandelanayo noma enolaka ekwelashweni?
• Ngabe umhlinzeki u-oda izivivinyo eziningi?
• Ngabe umhlinzeki ubhekisa kwabanye ochwepheshe kaningi noma kaningi?
• Bathini ozakwethu neziguli ngomhlinzeki?
• Ngabe umhlinzeki ukumema ukuthi ubambe iqhaza ekunakekeleni kwakho? Ngabe umhlinzeki ubheka ubudlelwano bakho nomhlinzeki weziguli njengobambiswano lweqiniso?

Ungathola ukuhanjiswa kusuka ku:

• Abangane, omakhelwane, noma izihlobo
• Izinhlangano zezokwelapha ezisezingeni loMbuso, izinhlangano zabahlengikazi, kanye nezinhlangano zabasizi bodokotela
• Udokotela wamazinyo, usokhemisi, udokotela wamehlo, umhlinzeki wangaphambilini, noma omunye uchwepheshe wezempilo
• Amaqembu abameli angasiza kakhulu ukuthola umhlinzeki ongcono kakhulu wesimo esithile esingelapheki noma ukukhubazeka
• Izinhlelo eziningi zezempilo, ezinjengama-HMO noma ama-PPO, zinamawebhusayithi, izinkomba, noma abasebenzi benkonzo yamakhasimende abangakusiza ukhethe i-PCP ekufanele

Okunye ongakwenza ukucela i-aphoyintimenti ukuze "uxoxisane" nomhlinzeki ongaba khona. Kungabibikho izindleko zokwenza lokhu, noma ungakhokhiswa ngokubambisana noma enye imali encane. Eminye imikhuba, ikakhulukazi amaqembu emikhuba yezingane, ingaba nendlu evulekile lapho unethuba lokuhlangana nabanikezeli abaningi kulelo qembu elithile.

Uma kuvela inkinga yokunakekelwa kwezempilo futhi ungenaye umhlinzeki oyinhloko, ezimweni eziningi, kungcono ukufuna ukunakekelwa okungeyona okuphuthumayo esikhungweni sokunakekelwa okuphuthumayo kunasesigumbini esiphuthumayo esibhedlela. Lokhu kuvame ukongela isikhathi nemali. Eminyakeni yamuva nje, amakamelo amaningi ezimo eziphuthumayo andise izinsizakalo zawo ukufaka ukunakekelwa okuphuthumayo ngaphakathi kwegumbi lezimo eziphuthumayo uqobo noma indawo ehlanganayo. Ukuthola, shayela isibhedlela kuqala.
