In this episode, Neil shares essential insights on how to handle emergencies that may arise during a guest's stay. Drawing from his extensive experience as a live-in host, Neil discusses the importance of being prepared for medical emergencies, personal safety issues, and crime incidents. He emphasizes the need for hosts to remain calm and collected in such situations, providing practical tips on how to respond effectively. 

KEY TAKEAWAYS


Always have a first aid kit on your property and ensure guests know how to contact emergency services. It's crucial to provide them with the correct emergency numbers, especially if they are from another country.


If an emergency occurs, remain calm and professional. Your demeanor can help reassure guests and create a stable environment while emergency services are responding.


Keep written notes about what happens during an emergency, including what you see, what is said, and the actions taken. This documentation can be valuable for any follow-up discussions.


Provide guests with essential information, such as emergency service numbers and your property address, prominently displayed in your house rules. This ensures they can quickly access the information they need in a crisis.


Encourage guests to download the app "What Three Words," which allows them to communicate their exact location using a unique three-word address. This can be especially helpful in emergencies when precise location details are necessary.

BEST MOMENTS

"If you've never dealt with the emergency services before, by the end of this episode you'll be confident with dealing with whatever happens."

"It's vital you stay out of the service workers' way as they work. Let them get on with their job."

"Empower your guests with the right information and tools to be able to deal with an emergency."

"In the UK, we simply dial 999 to be put through to the police, the fire brigade or the ambulance service."

"What Three Words is an app that can pinpoint just where you are, which could be a lifesaver."

ABOUT THE HOST

Neil has led a fulfilled and unconventional life, navigating an extraordinary journey from the Royal Navy to prop-making in London's West End theatres.

Eventually, Neil transitioned to Corporate Event Team Building, eventually founding his own venture in 1999. Financial challenges in 2017 are what prompted a strategic shift to Airbnb hosting, proving a reliable backup income. By 2021, Neil and his business partner triumphed over significant debt, fuelled by their resilience and the success of Neil's Airbnb venture. Now, Neil has left the corporate world behind, thriving solely through his flourishing Airbnb endeavours.
