Diagnoses
Care for an elderly couple.
The female senior is 84 years old, weighs 50 kg and is 160 cm tall. She suffers from dementia/Alzheimer's disease, has a groin hernia and an artificial bowel outlet (stoma). During her hospitalization, she spent several weeks in an induced coma. Her discharge from the hospital is planned for 18.11. Her current mobility will be assessed only after her return from the hospital. She currently uses incontinence pads, but the goal is to gradually restore her independence as much as possible. She needs help with personal hygiene and toilet use. An anti-decubitus mattress is available.
The male senior is 74 years old, weighs 75 kg and is 160 cm tall. He has early-stage dementia and type 1 diabetes, and he administers his insulin independently. He moves around independently and needs help with toilet use. His personal hygiene and washing are taken care of by his brother. The bedroom is located on the upper floor, and a stairlift is available in the house.
The main duties of the caregiver are assistance with personal hygiene, toilet use, and daily activities according to the needs of both seniors. It is important to support their independence and assist them according to their current health condition. Larger shopping trips are handled by the family, and a supermarket is located right in the village.
Night care is not required, and lifting is also not part of the job.
The seniors live in a family house. The caregiver has her own room with Wi-Fi. Free time can be arranged with the family.

ALSES – your reliable partner on the path to a successful career.
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.
A caregiving course is not required for families in Germany, but you need at least some experience of caring at home. In Switzerland, most families require a caregiving course.
Finding a family is an individual matter for every candidate, so there is no exact time frame for when we will find you a family that suits you both. In some cases we can arrange a job within a few hours, at other times the wait is a few days. For families in Switzerland, the wait can stretch to a month because of high demand. We place candidates fastest in the summer months, June – August, and more slowly from the end of January to the end of March.
If you wish, we will organise your transport. We have worked for many years with transport companies that our caregivers are happy to use again and again. You can of course choose another way of travelling that you prefer. The caregiver pays for the journey herself and the family contributes to it – €180 – 300 in Germany, CHF 380 – 400 in Switzerland, depending on the offer. If you do not have the cash to travel to Germany, we can pay the fare for you and deduct it from your pay afterwards.
In Germany a standard assignment lasts 4 – 6 weeks, in Switzerland 2 – 3 months. Replacement assignments are shorter.
In Germany the pay is up to €3 500 a month as a self-employed caregiver – the exact amount is stated in each offer. It depends on your German, the client’s state of health and whether you care for one person or a married couple. In Switzerland the pay is up to CHF 3 500 net a month on a Swiss employment contract.
In Germany, families most often require intermediate to good German; some are happy with basic German and/or want another language, such as Czech, Russian or Bulgarian. Families in Switzerland require good German, although a solid intermediate level is sometimes enough.
Yes, we successfully place male caregivers with families too.
