Client
a woman 85 years 176 cm 63 kg
Caregiving for an 85-year-old client. The client lives alone on the ground floor of a family house, with no other people or pets in the household, and the house does not have internet access. She uses a wheelchair but is currently bedridden due to a recent gastrointestinal infection from which she is still recovering and is significantly weakened. Mentally, she is alert but requires assistance with hygiene and is incontinent—needing help to use the toilet 4 to 5 times a day, including around 23:00 at night. An outpatient nursing service visits the household (providing home care), and night-time availability of the caregiver is also required. The job involves household management—cooking, cleaning, laundry—and personal care: assistance with morning hygiene in bed or bathroom, possibly showering (barrier-free shower, toilet chair or folding seat), help with transfers and walking to the toilet, assistance with dining at the table, as well as providing companionship and conversations with the client. The caregiver is required to have a driver's license category B, a good command of German, and above all, patience and empathy, as the client can occasionally be quirky and impatient. The assignment duration is currently agreed upon for 1 month. The caregiver will be accommodated in a separate furnished room upstairs with a private bathroom (toilet, sink), and may shower in the bathroom on the ground floor. There is also a balcony available where smoking is permitted; otherwise, smoking is prohibited in the house.

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.
