Being employed as a family caregiver can reduce loss of income and the risk of poverty in old age. We help you achieve financial security and coordinate your caregiving in the best possible way.
We support you with individual solutions for professional, high-quality family caregiving. And we are always there to answer your questions.
We support you with your administrative tasks so that you can concentrate on providing care, while our care professionals teach you the specialist knowledge you need and how to deal with everyday challenges.
The requirements are that you are of legal age and that the family caregiving is long-term. By type of care we mean help with eating and drinking, personal hygiene, positioning or, for example, dressing and undressing.
One of our registered nurses visits the person in need of care at home and assesses their care needs. This assessment is repeated every six months.
You sign the contract and receive gross pay of CHF 36–42 per hour for family caregiving (incl. Saturday and Sunday supplements). You can be employed even if you have reached AHV (state pension) age.
In addition to our regular visits, you can reach us by phone at any time if you have questions or problems.
