If you can afford to double their pay, do it. Give it in cash, too. These folks do NOT get paid enough, especially if they're through an agency, which takes a hefty chunk.
Is this a person you have hired or through an agency? Some agencies have rules about what an employee can accept (do all employees follow the rules...no) If this is a private hire the options are more open. What can you afford? $25.00? Cash or gift card A days pay? A weeks pay? Do not put yourself in a bad position financially to give a gift. No matter how they have been hired a very thoughtful letter or note expressing your appreciation to the care that they have shown is always welcome. It can be used as part of a reference when the person is looking for another job or a better work assignment. If the person is working for an agency a copy of the letter to the employer would be nice as well.
