Diagnoses
Care for a 76-year-old senior woman, who weighs 44 kg and is 163 cm tall. She has previously suffered a stroke and suffers from dementia, forgetfulness, and problems with orientation and coordination of movements. She is also prone to confusion (delirium) and dehydration. She is very kind, calm, and cooperative. She moves independently and uses the toilet without assistance. She requires partial help with personal hygiene and dressing. It is important to supervise the regular intake of medications, which are pre-prepared by the caregiving service, and ensure adequate fluid intake. The senior attends a day care center 5× a week. She is picked up around 7:30 in the morning and returns home around 16:30. During her absence, the caregiver has more free time. The job responsibilities include cooking, shared dining, cleaning, laundry, and small shopping tasks. A bicycle is available, and neighbors help if needed. The role also involves providing companionship, walks, and accompanying the senior as needed; a wheelchair is available. Regular night care is not required. The senior takes medication in the evening, which helps her sleep peacefully through the night. The senior lives alone in a barrier-free bungalow with an area of approximately 70 m² on the outskirts of Berlin. A bus stop is located directly in front of the house. The caregiver has their own furnished room with a bed, wardrobe, desk, television, and internet.

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.
