Below is an instruction that describes a task. Write a response that appropriately completes the request.

### Instruction:
At a zoo, three animal caretakers - Tom, Susan, and Nancy - each take care of different animals: Tom takes care of the lions, Susan looks after the elephants, and Nancy cares for the giraffes. One day, the zookeeper asks them to switch roles for a week. During this time, the caretakers must keep track of each other's routines and feeding schedules. After the week is over, how can they ensure that they have accurately followed one another's routines without directly asking or observing each other? Provide a brief response.

To ensure they have accurately followed one another's routines without direct communication or observation, the caretakers could create detailed records documenting their daily activities, noting any deviations from the usual care routine. They could also employ checklists that the original caretaker designed, marking off each task as it is completed.

Additionally, implementing a shared log book or digital record-keeping system where they can input information about the animals' behavior, health, and any issues encountered would provide insight into how well the routine was maintained.

If the keepers use standardized forms for reporting, these can act as a guide to ensure all necessary information is recorded. Each keeper would use these during their temporary assignment to track tasks like feeding times, quantities, behavioral observations, and medical administrations.

At the end of the week, they can review the records together to assess if each animal's needs were met according to their species-specific requirements and the zoo's standards. They can also check for consistency in the entries to verify that the routines were followed accurately.

This method relies on trust in each caretaker's diligence and honesty in recording their actions, but it allows them to verify the completion of tasks without the need for direct interaction regarding the caretaking duties.
