a woman 85 years 175 cm 60 kg
Caregiving involves an 85-year-old lady who is 175 cm tall and weighs approximately 60 kg. Her mobility is limited; she is unsteady on her feet and has an increased risk of falling. Although she can stand up by herself, movement is more challenging for her. Her left arm is movement-restricted, likely due to a mild stroke. The lady suffers from a mild form of dementia, primarily manifesting as forgetfulness and repetitive behavior. It is secondary dementia. Occasionally, she exhibits mild verbal aggression, but she does not experience hallucinations or have tendencies to wander. She has no issues with orientation in time, place, or people. She spends most of her free time watching television and goes to sleep based on her own fatigue. She enjoys company, simple conversations, or social games. It is important for the family that she has someone with her who can provide companionship and ensure her safety. A particular challenge is her dependency on alcohol. She consumes approximately one bottle daily, which amounts to about seven bottles weekly. If she does not receive her usual "ration," she becomes restless and dissatisfied. Therefore, it is important to manage her alcohol intake correctly or dilute it with water so she feels she is drinking enough. However, she is not drunk—she does not slur or stagger. She does not require any assistance at night and is not incontinent. The caregiver's responsibilities include assisting with hygiene, preparing fresh meals, shopping (about a 20-minute walk or two bus stops away), cleaning the household, doing laundry, ironing, and spending leisure time with the lady—engaging in conversations, playing games, or watching television. The lady lives alone in a family house with an area of 150 m². A separate room of 12 m² is prepared for the caregiver, equipped with a bed, wardrobe, table, and sink. Internet access will be provided. The family lives nearby and can assist if needed.

You don't pay our employment agency anything at all. We believe it is not right to charge people money in order to enable them to work, and so we offer assistance in finding job positions completely free of charge.
Most job positions in Germany are based on Slovak/Czech trade licenses, though employment contracts are possible with some families. In Switzerland, work is conducted under Swiss employment contracts.
No, completing a caregiving course is not necessary for most job positions; however, it is important to have at least some experience from a home environment.
Finding a family is a highly individual matter for each applicant, and therefore there is no exact timeframe for when we will find you a family with whom you will be mutually compatible. In some cases, we are able to arrange work within a few days; in other instances, the waiting period can be up to a month. For families in Switzerland, due to high demand, the wait may extend to two months.
If you are interested, we can arrange transportation for you. We have long-term partnerships with transport companies that our caregivers happily use repeatedly. Of course, you can also choose another transportation method that you prefer. The caregiver pays for the journey themselves, with the family in Germany contributing €150-200 towards it, and in Switzerland 380 CHF.
In Germany, the standard length of a work period is 4 to 6 weeks, while in Switzerland it's 2 months. In the case of temporary replacements, the periods are shorter.
The salary range in Germany is between €1200 and €2200 per month on a trade license. Compensation depends on the required language and other skills, the client's health condition, and whether care is provided for an individual or a married couple. In Switzerland, the salary ranges from 2460 to 2500 CHF per month on a Swiss employment contract.
In Germany, an intermediate to good knowledge of German is most commonly required, while some families are satisfied with basic knowledge and/or require knowledge of another language, such as Czech or Russian. Families in Switzerland require good knowledge of German, though sometimes an upper-intermediate level is sufficient.
